DESCRIPTION: Rear wings are an integral part of formula 1 cars. These car attachments use the air rushing over it produce a force that pushes the car down into the tarmac, allowing the car to corner at higher speeds. This force is called downforce. The wing will also produce drag, a force that slows down the car and limits top speed. Research into a wing that produces high downforce and low drag is essential in a formula 1 team gaining a competitive edge. The following is data produced from a study into rear wings which altered the angle of attack (AOA) which is the angle at which a wing is raised from horizontal, and wing height. Also note that the higher the amount of air passing over it, the more efficient the wing is.
