Renault's F-duct will be seen at a grand prix circuit "soon", according to team boss Eric Boullier.
Earlier this year, the Enstone based team said it would not waste resources on the downforce-stalling innovation.
But given that several of Renault's key rivals including Mercedes, Sauber, Williams and Force India have implemented the McLaren-pioneered system, Boullier revealed in April that the team is now "actively working" on an F-duct design.
France's Auto Hebdo said a date for the debut has not been set, but the solution is expected to prove a significant advantage on the long straights of Montreal's Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in two weeks.
"I can tell you that the F-duct will be tested soon," Eric Boullier confirmed. "We are going to use it soon but we want to make sure it works 100 per cent before we put it into a race."
Only Toro Rosso and the three new teams are not working on F-ducts.
