During the last Grand Prix Commission which took place during the Qatar Grand Prix, different measures were adopted regarding the wings.

Tolerated for a year in Moto3 and subject to proposals from manufacturers in MotoGP, they were banned this year in Moto2.

However, during the first free practice sessions of this same Grand Prix, we could see Dominique Aegerter's Moto2 trying vertical appendages intended to channel the air flow around its saddle.

Far from giving up in the face of this unexpected ban, the Garage Plus Interwetten team and Tom Luthi, recent winner of the first Grand Prix 2016, tested, before flying to Argentina, an alternative solution which seems to give complete satisfaction in the Geneva wind tunnel.

So much so that we should see this brand new helmet from FP1, which begins this afternoon at 14 p.m.

According to the pilot, the device works very well, as long as you don't turn your head too much to the side.
