So those old flat floors are out - and well now we have aero tunnels - and strap in - these are genius. I’m so excited for these aero-tunnels man.
And these, rather than a flat floor and this ‘kick line’ that ramps up into the diffuser. So flat floor with air being pulled through by a large diffuser.
Now, we’re going to have these sort of three-part tunnels
throat so you'll have this bit by the side of the cockpit where you have a ramp section going down converging and then you have a section which i've described in some of my drawings as a flat floor it's not strictly flat it's kind of curved then you're then allowed to have a much bigger effectively a diffuser which is just an even bigger tunnel starts much earlier
if we go back to the journey of the air going under the floor the air will arrive at the front of the car so the air will arrive pretty much untouched and then go into this converging section and it will start to accelerate as it goes into this converging section until you reach that first kick line and this is where you'll get the first burst of downforce the first burst of really low pressure the air will then continue to accelerate under that middle flatter section of floor

On the previous cars this would create loads of dirty air that made life much worse for the car behind - it came out the rear of the car very low and spread wide by all the outwash.
now what you'll have is the tunnels will end with the beam wing which is the lower rear wing which is of quite strong quite a powerful wing and then you'll have this big curved upper wing and these will all collect the airflow that comes out of the diffusers and then push it upwards and eventually outwards which they describe it is the mushroom
This actually lifts the dirty air up and above the car behind - genius!
