Based on 2D analysis of No.38 profile,
some manual modification had been done for only
main plane with regard to DRS function.

Rear wing height had been decided with regard to center of gravity, drag force,
downforce, down force distribution with maximum predicted point gain.

Diffuser
Larger A/R : effective
Shorter length : less sensitive to pitch
Turning flow around the endplate
helps generating more downforce
