Further information and links ▼

In our previous video tutorial, we created a carbon fibre motorsport wing using a relatively simple 'mouldless' construction method of wrapping carbon fibre and resin around a hot-wired foam core. In this follow-up video, we test the wing to destruction to find out how much downforce it can withstand and how it will fail when it does.

00.29 Reasons for destructive testing
00.55 The Test Rig
02.46 The First Test
05.57 The Second Test - with saddles
07.19 Test Conclusions
