How teams are converging on leftfield wings for 2020
As the 2019 F1 season begins to draw to a close, the focus has already shifted to next year. Multiple teams have started 2020 test programmes in practice, each featuring similar front wing design philosophies as next year's designs seem to be converging
It's often said that hindsight is 20/20. But for one year only, the prescience of Formula 1's engineers will surely be enhanced by the fact that all of next year's planning will be done with 2020 vision.
Before you roll your eyes at that somewhat-contrived pun, there's actually some truth to that. For the final stage in F1's current rules cycle before the much-anticipated 2021 overhaul crashes into the paddock, there's very little change from 2019.
