The unique wings F1 teams have fitted for high-speed Monza

Although the new generation of F1 cars produce much more of their downforce from ground effect than wings, that has not stopped teams from making changes for this weekend’s Italian GP.

Ahead of the first track running, here is a look at how each team has adapted their cars.

Mercedes

At the front of the W13, Mercedes has reduced the camber flap to better suit the low downforce levels of its rear wing.

Ferrari has introduced a single element beam wing to suit Monza’s demands. This was originally revealed in Belgium and trialled in free practice, but was not carried through to qualifying.
