The front wing plays an important role for the overall aerodynamics of the current Dallara IR-18 Indycar: it is the first part of the car that impacts the airflows and it works in conjunction with the car’s floor and rear wing to create aerodynamic downforce and balance between the front and the rear of the car. Hence, it provides downforce and sets up the airflow for the rest of the vehicle. In Indycar, all cars have a single aerodynamic configuration, but this changes depending on the type of track. This means that every team needs to run the same base specification according the circuit, so no modifications or bodywork development is allowed. There are three aerodynamic configurations the car runs in: Superspeedway, Short Oval and Road/Street Course.  The main difference between these configurations is the presence of flaps. The height of the wing is the same, but the angle of the flaps can be changed. In a superspeedway - where the circuit is characterised by long straights and...
