The Formula 1 He has been trying to solve the problem of racing in the rain for a long time. The amount of spray produced by current vehicles makes visibility difficult and extremely dangerous to drive. For this reason, races often take too long to start if it rains heavily or are not held as in Belgium a few years ago. Now the FIA Try to avoid these situations and try solutions.
One of them is the sparyguards which they tested with Ferrari this Thursday at Fiorano. This is a carbon cover on both the front and rear wheels that surrounds most of the wheel. Those in charge of launching them are Arthur Leclerc and Oliver Bearman
They are only used if the track requires heavy rain of tires to be set. It should be noted that some holes are made in the front part of the cover which, depending on the results of the Ferraris tests, will be bigger or smaller.
The FIA has already tried a less invasive method but the effects were not as desired and so they were discarded the first time. Now this model is not certain at all but they have to listen to the voices of the pilots. In fact, Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc will test it and their explanations will be key.
