We have gradually seen carbon brake ducts appear on Formula 1 wheels that have become increasingly more complicated with air vents, flaps and flow control devices that have acquired a much more sophisticated design (they are true masterpieces of modern art) because the aerodynamic engineers have seen that by clearing air of the turbulence that is generated as the tyre rotates, they can reduce the drag of the single-seater or increase downforce.
