Default Honda's new wing
I love it when the teams get back to Europe/home and have 3-weeks to get ready for the next race, all the new cool developments start showing up at the tracks for testing.




Honda shows new wings
15 April 2008

In Tuesday's test session at Circuit de Catalunya the Honda Formula 1 team is testing two little wings attached to the car's front wing. The BMW Sauber team is the only team running the same kind of wings in Formula 1, although Honda placed the same wings up-side-down compared to the wings they are using at BMW.

Looks like Renault is going to try the Red Bull tail extension...

Is it just me or does the white vertical wing extension on the side just out from the rear view mirror location look new?

I guess it's because the majority of the surface area of the tail is white but the Renault one looks huge in comparison to the Redbull one.

From the front they look like the antennae from the Cootie game.
