Thanks for the link on the CDG wing - I did not know that. Any ideas why it was not given a go? It seems vastly more in the spirit of racing than the 'push to pass' DRS that has not been exactly popular with the dedicated fan. I don't think the Pirelli tyres have been that popular with fans either. The CDG wing appears a lot more true to the spirit of what racing is about.

I think it was ultimately concluded that it wouldn't work in practice as well as the preliminary CFD results suggested. It was an interesting study none the less.
