Ferrari may have reached out to Dyson’s R&D Department to see if they can find a way to suck the car down to the track.
The 2014 F1 rules require front and rear spoilers to be narrower.
Why? – Safety reasons. The narrow the spoiler, the less downforce, thus slows the car down and increase safety.
However the rules on design are not as strict. Thus the elephant nose inspired vacuum front end from the Flintstones.
(At least it doesn’t look like a penis from McLaren MP4-29 and Williams FW36. (below)
