After seeing it yesterday with the first close-up photos, we had the chance to observe even better the evolution of the Ferrari SF-24. The prancing horse’s single-seater has arrived in Imola, the first European stop, with a avalanche of novelties. Let’s discover together, up close, all the updates brought to Imola by Ferrari on the SF-24 EVO for the Emilia Romagna GP weekend.
The macroscopic novelties obviously focus on the sidepods and the hood, with a multitude of changes to the sidepods and hood. However, many other details have changed on Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz’s single-seater to make the SF-24 EVO work better.
First and foremost, the front wing, which has undergone small changes to the flaps to increase local load and expand the setup adjustment possibilities. A modification that will allow the SF-24 to have a slightly more front-oriented behavior, following some of Charles Leclerc’s driving characteristics. Speaking of the other wing element, the rear wing, the changes involved the main plane and the upper flap.
The most noticeable change is that of the sidepods and inlets, with the lip being reversed, following the Red Bull design. The change has allowed for an increase in air volume in the underfloor, allowing for better operation of the FWE. A significant amount of additional air runs under the sidepods and feeds the diffuser and beam wing, as well as the floor edge wing to seal the bottom. The latter has been modified to work together with the new sidepod geometry and better guide the flows to the rear. There are also changes to the aerodynamic details on the side of the Halo, which now have the task of improving the direct flow on the sidepods with a downwash effect.
Ferrari has also intervened to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of the car, reducing the section of the hood and opening a slot behind the Halo to avoid problems with the boundary layer. A modification that improves the efficiency of the single-seater and is in line with the large air outlet just behind.
Moving to the rear, Scuderia Ferrari has also intervened on the diffuser, which now has a new central channel to improve the extraction of air volume from under the car. A modification that allows for greater expansion of flows and a consequent increase in local load. Also at the rear, Ferrari has optimized the profiles of the suspension triangles, crucial for better guiding the incident flows in that area, with a further increase in local load.
