Red Bull's rear wing issues and the complexities of airflow reattachment

In this episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson look ahead to the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa while revisiting a couple of key technical talking points from Silverstone.They discuss Red Bull’s troublesome rear wing and the issues that have impacted Max Verstappen in consecutive weekends, with Gary explaining the complexities of airflow reattachment, why the revolving rear wing design itself isn't necessarily the issue, and whether the team should return to a more conventional rear wing setup for Spa.Gary also shares his thoughts on the front-left wheel shield issue Kimi Antonelli suffered during the British Grand Prix and how he'd react to that if he was working for Mercedes, plus he answers questions from listeners about the fine margins of F1 car weight and design, how driver height and weight affect car dynamics, and how front wing adjustments are made in the modern active-aero era.Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening, sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.
