FIA to tighten 2027 active aero rules as Ferrari Macarena wing faces new limit
Ferrari will be able to retain its distinctive Macarena rear-wing concept in 2027, but a planned FIA regulation change is set to reduce the freedom available in how quickly the active aerodynamic system moves between configurations. The proposed restriction is particularly relevant to the SF-26 because Ferrari’s solution uses a much larger rotation angle than […]
The changes will affect the movable components.
McLaren is one of the teams that uses the rotating plane in its rear wing The International Automobile Federation has cut 25% the maximum time that a mobile rear wing can take to move from straight mode to curved mode by 2027: from 400 to 300 milliseconds. Ferrari, Red Bull and McLaren will have to comply with their Macarena designs.Several teams have sought with 2026 cars to reduce the aerodynamic resistance in the straight lines, and one of th…
As mentioned a few months ago, the FIA decided to modify the technical regulation of Formula 1 for 2027 in order to frame more strictly the rotary rear fins that appeared this season. Popularized by Ferrari with its concept nicknamed Macarena, these devices reduce the aerodynamic drag in a straight line thanks to a spectacular rotation of the upper part. Red Bull and McLaren have since developed their own solutions, all considered legal by the (…
