Japanese company Team Azarashi have written an update on their site on the development of some new front and rear wings. The new rear wing provides less downforce than the company’s previous wing giving more controllable handling, while a new front wing helps smooth the airflow over the buggy, helping reduce turbulence on the rear wing. Both wings are still under development but are expected to go on sale before the end of the year.
