Renault did it some races ago and at Silverstone Williams have introduced two small 'ears' towards the front of the chassis. These slightly increase downforce on the front axle - and better manage the airflow to the rear of the car. The small change is a part of the substantial update package that Williams began to introduce in France in a quest for improved aerodynamic stability. Particular benefit is likely to be felt during sudden direction changes at high speed - like in the Becketts complex.
