ELECTRONICS

aerodynamics.png

System concept: high downforce with max. efficiency as well as good LiDAR and camera visibility, easiest disassembly and assembly of each wing, cornering optimized
Front-wing: tyre wake management through optimized vortex systems, arrow geometry based on the lap simulation of the autonomous system prevents cone contact
Rear-wing: 3D wing geometry with maximum usage of the installation space, adjustability through CFRP rods
Side-wing: sidepods for optimum flow around and through the cooling system, maximum downforce through wing
