Default Check out the updated front wing on the Toyota F1 car



looks better than the cup holder or baby diaper changer mini stand design they had before . It looks like a feather now sweeping through the air. I hope they do well in Monza this weekend. But I really doubt it .

they TRY it in wind tunnels and on test tracks

and then they APPLY it for more track testing and racing

i believe one of the biggest problems with toyota F1 has always been the aerodynamics
i truly hope this will improve the timings
theyve thrown in so much money already
