Yes. Check out "F1 Racing" August issue, page 102. It was still available at "Barnes Noble" as of yesterday (Saturday).

Is the narrow rear wing an actual rule or is it just an easy way to simulate the reduced downforce for next year?

I've heard that this rear wing is exaggerated but I'm not sure. They definitely are narrower, how much though I'm not sure.

I think that next years car will be interesting. As long as the racing is good i'm fine with it.

I'm just happy that all the little winglets and stuff on the sidpods will be gone. I think the cars will look a lot better with all that crap gone.

Wow, that rear wing is ugly as hell, but if it makes the racing better it's all good to me. I'm not to sure if sponsors are going to like it though, having their name shrunk.

I actually think some of the winglets are cool. Gives F1 a different look from other open wheel cars.
