Floor Bodywork Assembly

Chapter: C3

In Simple Terms

The floor of an F1 car is made up of several components (main floor, bib, leading edge, fences, boards, and winglets) that must be combined into one solid piece without overlapping sections. Teams can use small rounded edges (up to 25mm radius) where pieces meet, but the floor must function as a single unified structure.

  • Floor assembly combines 7 distinct components: main floor, bib, leading edge device, fence, board, winglet, and corner sections
  • All pieces must form a single continuous volume with no overlapping regions
  • Fillet radius (rounded edges) is limited to a maximum of 25mm at joints
  • The regulation ensures structural integrity and prevents teams from creating hidden cavities or complex multi-layered designs
