hey guys... i don't know if this is new or not...

I noticed that there seems to be a winglet on the BMW F1.08's front suspension package...it's painted white, seems to be swooping downward and it's between the upper and lower front suspension arms.

in contrast, here's a pic of the car as raced in Spa '08

edit: My bad...it has been raced before...in Valencia at least...
