New 2022 F1 Car
Formula One has revealed their new car for the upcoming 2022 season. The new car has been designed to allow for closer racing and the potential for more overtakes throughout a race.
The cars will now feature over-wheel winglets and wheel covers. The job of the over-wheel winglets is to help control the wake coming off the front tires and direct it away from the rear wing. We will see, for the first time in F1, 18” wheels with low-profile tires.
The new cars will also have a new front wing and nose concept that is another way that F1 will ensure that the front wheel wake is controlled and create a more direct disruption of the airflow. On the back of the car we see a new rear wing that features ‘rolled tips’ meant to create a rotational airflow that collects the rear wheel wake and rolls it into the flow exiting the diffuser and forming an invisible ‘mushroom’-shaped wake. The new design will make for a more competitive race come 2022.
