Bite-size tech: Toro Rosso rear brake duct

As part of its large update package in Germany, Toro Rosso has introduced a new rear brake duct, which features several new fins mounted to the pre-existing vertical fence. This new cluster of winglets features three flaps (highlighted in yellow) that help to guide the airflow up over the rear wishbone and shape the wake shed by the rear tyre.
