2027年迈凯轮F1赛车前翼在巴西大奖赛上首次亮相
迈凯轮在巴西大奖赛上揭幕了其2027年F1赛车的新前翼，这是车队为MCL40车型带来的最新升级。
作为车队在赛季末对MCL40车型进行持续改进的一部分，迈凯轮将最新的升级带到了Interlagos赛道。
这些升级包括对地板的调整、更新后的尾翼，以及将构成下赛季MCL41赛车起点的新前翼。
新前翼的设计对车队来说是一次概念上的转变，因为它在机翼各个元素上进行了许多修订。
主平面和端板的连接点已经修改，现在横跨下边缘——与经过优化的外板元素相接。
前翼和主平面之间的连接已经被调整，现在位于第二个襟翼上，而不是主平面上，同时新的机翼也在襟翼元素的高度上进行了调整。
在周末之前，麦凯轮车队解释说，这些改动旨在提供更多的下压力并改善车辆的平衡。
空气动力学首席技术官彼得·普罗多莫斯也明确表示，这些改动是2027年项目的起点。
“赛季还没有结束：这些升级是为了现在提高车辆性能，并帮助我们争夺年度第三名，”他解释道。
“我们从这些升级中学到的经验将用于下一年的车辆开发，同时我们也期待将新前翼的概念应用到下一款车型的首发规格中。”

McLaren’s new front wing, which will be the same concept it launches its 2027 Formula 1 car with, has been revealed at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
As part of an end-of-season push by the Woking-based squad to deliver continuous improvements to its MCL40, the squad has brought its latest upgrades to Interlagos.
This includes tweaks to its floor, an updated rear wing, but also a front wing that will form the starting point for next season’s MCL41.
The front wing is a change of concept for the team as it features many revisions across the spectrum of wing elements.
The attachment point for the main plane and the endplate has been revised to now run across the lower edge – where it marries up with the refined outboard element.
The attachment between the nose and the main plane has been adjusted to sit on the second flap now rather than the mainplane, while the new wing also features an adjustment in the height of the flap elements.
Speaking ahead of the weekend, McLaren explained that the changes delivered were about both delivering more downforce and improving car balance.
Chief technical officer of aerodynamics Peter Prodromou also made clear that these changes were the launchpad for its 2027 project.
“The season isn't over yet: these upgrades are designed to improve the car now and help us in our fight for third in the championship,” he explained.
“While the learning we take from these upgrades will feed into next year’s development, we also expect to carry over the concept of the new front wing into the launch specification of next year’s car.”
