Ferrari’s rotating rear wing could cut drag by a further 7%, worth 5-8 km/h on fast tracks 💡
Rear-wing CdA (drag) drops by 'just' 0.010. But the effect propagates upstream:
• Rear tyres: –0.024 CdA (!!)
• Chassis: –0.014 CdA
CFD by @MayaSimulation shows every component either sees reduced drag or remains unchanged... and that’s with a generic wing profile! Ferrari has shaped the rear end specifically to maximise this concept.
This could be a critical advantage!
