How many new front wings were there today?

Question

I counted 7.

Jenson, Nico, Timo, Fernando, Nick, and 2 for Kimi.

Did I miss any?

Answer 1

it was more than 7.

Answer 2

Yeah, I think it was altogether 7. But if I'm not mistaken Nico used two front wings as well, making the total 8. And quite a few drivers suffered punctures

Answer 3

A fair few!

Answer 4

yes i counted about 7 also just think that is £10,000 per wing and then £70,000 is spent

Answer 5

It appears that quite a few people would have made it home sooner had they started the race without wings today.

What's even funnier is that no one could overtake them as they crawled to the pits for a replacement.

Makes you wonder why McLaren thought it was a good idea to test the aerodynamic properties of their sponsors' diamonds when those ultra developed front wings didn't seem to make much difference!

Answer 6

Lol. I thought Nico had 2 replacements as well.  They should all race without front wings on this track, that would be cool.

Answer 7

KFC did some good sales with their wings as well!!!  their tag line was - be a kimi - get three wings (including the one he started with) for the price of one..

Answer 8

Lol... and a rear wing for Button& Glock, Extra tyres for Hamilton and Alonso, extra gear box for DC, now a new car for DC, Boudrais and Rosberg and a new diffuser, wing and rear suspenision for poor old Sutil, still what a grand prix!
