BARGEBOARDS DETAILS
LAUNCH
AUSTRALIA TO G. BRITAIN
1. The saw-tooth profile at the bottom of the barge board features dramatically reduce turbulence, and therefore improve both cooling and airflow management close to the sidepods
2. Smaller set of bargeboards inside the critical area of the front wheels
3. Horizontal turning vane , manages airflow passing under the car
4. Triangular fin with. Its function is to reduce vortices in this area and improve airflow around the lower section of the sidepods
5. The cut edged profile at the upper side of the main board helps reducing turbulence and improving engine cooling
6. Wing-like element on the top edge of the small bargeboard, designed to help raise the pressure of air passing towards the bottom of the car
7-8. Horizontal arched section , provides channel for the airflow around the lowest section of the barge boards. This generates a sort of Venturi effect that not only provides slightly more downforce, but more importantly speeds up the airflow in this area so as to increase the extraction of air from under the front wing's main profile, hence improving its efficiency
9. The cut edged profile at the upper side of the small board helps further reducing turbulence
FROM GERMANY
Extended sidepod panel extending from the elongated panel towards the barge board . The connection to the bargeboard forms an aerofoil that direct air towards the ground, while another small winglet attached to the barge board does exactly the opposite.
