 The
deep endplates help generate more downforce (for a small drag penalty).
The cut-out in the lower leading edge of the endplate helps increase the local low pressure
side's air flow by encouraging more flow volume to travel underneath the wing rather than outboard of the endplate. |
 The
shape of the rear fender also encourages air to flow in between the
endplate
and the fender. The endplate is dished out towards its trailing
edge. Note the shaping of the trailing edge of the rear fender,
how its outboard shape draws inboard quickly past the wheel. |
 Note
the gurney along most of the height of the endplate trailing edge.
The gurney, combined with the shaping of the trailinge edge of
the rear fender, further encourages airflow inboard. |
