Are there any updates on this? I'm very interested in getting one, price and downforce dependant.

They have a few issues with new german TÜV regulations.
But they should be ready to sell in a week or two. ??

In F1 terms I think this would be a Monza spec wing rather than Monaco spec…. Looks pretty flat so would be interested to see the additional kg at 130mph….

Not that much. It can't.
Because it would crush the OEM wing, which works as the mounting plate, when it would generate much downforce.

The first version needed to be redesigned after they run a CFD test and figured that it would crush the OEM wing.

Sooooo it's all about the look then rather than the performance. Not my thing I guess but fair enough ?

Not at all.
It generates as much downforce as possible.
Why else would anyone do a CFD run?

If it where for the looks, they would have just smashed it on and be done with it.

As much as possible on the OEM wing. Which might be the challenge. But In that case as per my initial comment it would be interesting to know what it generates. It's there to do a job and it's easy to calculate…

wonder how much front camber is required with this one to get the grip levels compensated

I think I would be more concerned about how to balance out the downforce from this wing. If it is anywhere near as effective as it looks then the front end is likely to suffer from increased understeer if more downforce is not added there as well. At the very least I would be looking to add some positive rake, but that of course would require adjustable ride height.

Many years ago I bought a beautiful carbon fibre wind tunnel rear wing from a BTCC Renault Laguna. Random purchase but looks nice. It literally has a 90 degree shape too it - must of needed some serious mounting points in the boot lid!

And what about Suisse MFK? I won't put such a wing on the car without DTC certificate.

Yeah. As it looks right now, it won't get any kind of certificate here. It's just ridiculous expensive for the few people that would buy one.

So most likely it will get a material certificate and will than be sold everywhere in the world except Germany and Switzerland because we have laws that make it just too expensive.
