F2005 UPDATES FOR FRANCE
The F2005 has undergone considerable development recently, and in France the car sports a large number of changes. Mainly they are aerodynamic, focussed on delivering a better balance to the car. These additional inclined fins on the side of the nose cone are at the level of the upper suspension wishbone. They work together with the wishbone's wing-shaped profile to effectively increase its surface. The fins therefore produce an increase in downforce on the front axle and also manage airflow to the better of the car more efficiently.
 
In addition to the sidepod fins the F2005 is also boasting further additional aerodynamic elements on the sidepods. These feature are inclined downwards and have a rounded shape and have the same function to similar devices introduced in previous races by Toyota in BAR. They provide a small additional amount of downforce very close to the centre of the car, improving its aerodynamic stability. These elements are likely to be developed further as the season progresses.
