Toro Rosso STR10 - revised rear wing
The Italian team introduced a new rear wing design for the lower downforce demands of the Shanghai International Circuit. Gone is the previous monkey seat (left inset) in the wing’s lower section, while the flap now has an S-shaped rear trailing edge, without the gurney flap seen on the wing used in Australia (top inset).
