BMW Sauber F1.08, Montreal, June 2008
Willy Rampf: "Together with Spa, Montreal is the only medium-downforce circuit. The aerodynamic efficiency plays a very special role here. We used a front wing with smaller, modified flaps. The Tomcat wings also had to give way in favour of lower drag. The rear wing was again mounted on central supports and represented a new development. We also adapted the rim covers to the special requirements. No other circuit puts such a strain on the brakes as Montreal and we therefore paid particular attention to optimum cooling. Our one-two finish was not only the reward for the racing team on the track but also for all those people who are responsible for the development of the car in Hinwil and in Munich."
