I was reading Autoweek this weekend, and noticed Ferarri's new front wing.

Does anyone have any frontal shots of it, and does anyone know the aerodynamic theories behind the swoopy-swoop curves, etc?

It looks very purposeful!!!!

Pretty ironic from a company who's founder once said "aerodynamics is for those who cannot build powerful engines".

Obligatory pic (one of the aircraft I used to fly in my "former life" - same kind anyway - not sure if I have any hours in that particular tail #, I'd have to check):

I would guess they're trying, like everyone else, to clean up the flow as much as possible through and around the central portion of the front wing.
