After complaints from several drivers regarding the aeroscreen’s performance in the wet – a situation blurred somewhat by teams following different procedures to disperse the rain – IndyCar has introduced mandatory rain vanes to direct as much water as possible away from the screen. Some drivers had noted that rain gathered and remained either side of the central wicker that extends from the nose all the way up the aeroscreen.
IndyCar’s new rain vanes sit on the front suspension access panel and either side of the central wicker.
