Just been watching FP1 at Spa and found it great to see that Williams have tried something new!!

Spoiler:

What do you think it will benifit more Downforce or their DRS. I'm thinking their DRS as it might channel the air through the open slot.

Just to let you know all pictures have to be in a spoiler tag

Also looks a very interesting wing will do wonders for the drs surely

Nice pic Leachy.

Looking at that design, I'm guessing it will improve downforce, as the scoop / bowl will concentrate the airflow.

DRS acceleration is generally created by reducing downforce (i.e. having smaller wing area) in contact with the air stream.

I could, of course, be wrong.

Anyone got a pic of the DRS flap open? looks to have a very thin flap on it.
