    I guess they're still undecided which to use, and running back-to-back tests...
    Either that or they take the opportunity to gather data and compare as well as letting the drivers get a feeling for both. When they introduce changes there are often pros and cons, this way the driver can tell more accurately what he does not like about the change in feeling and they can counteract it with some tweaking.

    Here's the original 2017 Fiesta WRC ...


    Compare to new rear aero...


    They talk a lot about the new rear wing but its hard to see the difference. The wider vented rear arches & bumper look much clearer.

    Much credit to that 'Finnish village team' that got their aero right straight out of the box.

    To me it appeared more "flat" at first, but might be an optical illusion.

    They were redoing front aero at end of 2017. Actually the only team that dId not do big aero changes yet is Citroen(only very small splitter modus) . Whether that's because it's as good as it gets or whether they dont have money/time to do it is another question.
