I keep thinking that I should try and justify the size of those wings buy the fact that the reason they are so high and large is that they are up out of the cars slipstream and in "fresh air", and that they keep the car planted at speed. But alas, I doubt either of them has ever really truly needed a fraction of the downforce that they could possibly provide, if they are even really wings that are shaped to provide downforce, and that they aren't 7 layer fiberglass with 1 layer CF on the outside
