New front wing for Aguri in Australia
Super Aguri will have a new front wing for the Australian Grand Prix, as they bid to bring both cars to the finish of their third Formula One race
The new Japanese team has made a formidable F1 debut, with Takuma Sato finishing both Grands Prix, at Bahrain and Malaysia. Teammate Yuji Ide, on the other hand, has retired from both rounds with an engine failure.
Super Aguri are racing with four-year-old Arrow chassis, and Sato said they will feature new updates on the car at Melbourne.
"The team will have a new aero update for this race, and I think that our car will be better suited to this meandering street circuit," the Japanese said.
"After the opening back-to-back races, the team has now had a chance to take a short break and we have also had time to evaluate our performance from the initial races and hopefully make a step forward for the coming Grands Prix."
Team owner Aguri Suzuki added: "[We] will bring a further front wing development to Australia, so we shall hopefully see an improvement in our performance.
"I hope that we will be able to move up a position on the grid and see cars #22 and #23 both finishing the race."
