Generally with these current cars, the lower they can be run, the more downforce they can create, as long as teams can keep the aerodynamics stable.

Under F1 rules, teams were not allowed to start aerodynamic work on their 2026 cars until the start of this year.

F1 cars are faster in cooler conditions because the higher air density increases both downforce and engine performance, and wind is bad news for the cars' sensitive aerodynamics.

A further change in approach is that they would not be using Ferrari's latest redesigned front suspension, preferring to stick with last year's design for consistency of aerodynamic research.

Students will be able to use the wind tunnels to investigate aerodynamics and test forces on their aircraft design.
