The double diffuser, The F-duct, The blown-exhaust diffuser, the coanda exhaust... and now this. Considering the aero sensitivity of today's Formula 1 cars and the development needed to implement this solution, it may prove quite difficult to copy.

The Monkey Seat is being used as I speculated. Channeling the exhaust gas to the wing. Like a new sort of blown diffuser.

I think this is a whole new level of rice. I've never seen wings ON the fartcan.

I thought suspension elements couldn't be shaped or arranged for aerodynamic benefits. Que the complaints from Ferrari.

They can't have anything attached to them for aerodynamic purposes. Apparently the suspension parts they're using are built in one piece like that, which would circumvent the rule. That's my understanding from what I have read and it still might get banned since it is still pre-season.

It was my understanding that they couldn't be shaped like airfoils or otherwise for aero benefit. Maybe not but we'll see pretty quickly if other teams either complain or start adopting it.
