Ferrari F10 - revised rear wing

Ferrari have brought a new lower-downforce rear wing to Belgium, which will be used by Felipe Massa during qualifying and in the race. The revised endplates feature Red Bull-inspired gills, while the wing's main profile has a smaller flap and no longer features a slot.

Revised front-wing flex test

The front wing must be no lower than 75mm above the reference plane, which is the lowest point of the car without the plank (yellow dotted line). To check compliance with this rule, prior to this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix, in scrutineering a load of 50kg was applied to the endplates (smaller red arrow), with a permitted flex of up to 10mm. After rival teams voiced suspicions that the front wings of Red Bull and Ferrari were flexing more than this at speed, the FIA has doubled the load applied in the test to 100kg, now measured in the middle of the wing's side section (larger red arrow), with a permitted flex of 20mm. Both Red Bull and Ferrari cleared scrutineering at Spa.

Revised floor flex test

The FIA carry out load tests to check whether a car's floor flexes beyond the permitted 5mm (yellow highlighted area) under a 200kg load. The test, which uses a piston in the centre of the floor, was introduced at the 2007 Spanish Grand Prix following the controversy surrounding Ferrari's 'moveable' floor device. Stricter front-wing flex tests have been introduced here at Spa and at the next round in Italy a stricter floor test will be added. Whilst the same weight will be used, the test will be applied to the side of the floor too. It will also be prohibited to run a section of plank less than 100cm in length.

Ferrari F10 - updated diffuser

In Belgium, Ferrari have been running a modified diffuser and floor, which are similar to the ones used by McLaren and Renault. The size of the longitudinal inlet is shown clearly by the amount of visible road surface (see area highlighted in yellow). There are two longitudinal fairings in order to respect the rule dimensions.

Renault R30 - F-duct system

In Belgium, Renault were the latest team to introduce their version of McLaren's innovative F-duct system. It has worked well over the course of the weekend, helping the car achieve very competitive straight-line speeds on Spa's long straights, with some estimating it to be worth over 0.5s of lap time at the Belgian circuit. The air directs on to the main section of the wing, not the flap, and is activated by the driver's left hand.
