So at least Ferrari’s technical director James Allison claims, as most teams in Jerez have shifted the focus to race car aerodynamics to later testing. The priority was engine performance and reliability. He says now that teams have started focusing on aerodynamics, they are rapidly gaining in speed. "Just look at the size of the rear wings. They're more or less Canadian-type wings. There's a thrust hidden there that will allow for higher cornering speed." Jenson Button was also one of the drivers who said he had no doubt that the race cars would become much faster even before the Australian Grand Prix. Such low speed is the reason d
