Front Wing Endplate Diveplane Reference Volume (RV-FWEP-DIVEPLANE)

Chapter: C

In Simple Terms

The front wing endplate diveplane is a specific 3D box-shaped area on the front wing where teams must ensure their car design fits within strict boundaries. This invisible reference zone helps FIA officials check that the front wing components don't exceed allowed dimensions, with the upper portion trimmed by a reference plane from another regulation section.

  • Defines a cuboid (box-shaped) reference volume for front wing endplate diveplane components
  • Uses precise coordinates to establish the allowed dimensions in millimeters
  • Material above the trimming plane from §23.5 is excluded from the permitted zone
  • Used by FIA technical officials to verify front wing legality during technical inspections
Official FIA Text

RV-FWEP-DIVEPLANE is composed of an axis-aligned cuboid with interior diagonal [XF=-950, 575, 175] to [XF=-550, 900, 340], trimmed with plane from §23.5 with all material above plane discarded.
