Some progress with the hot air duct from the water cooler. It was made from 0,4 mm brass sheet, because soldering is easier.

The Tamiya fuel lines are leading sideways, but in fact they lead upwards.So I drilled new holes to fix them.

Next step is the construction of the rear wing. Ferrari used two versions.
The early version was to be seen on the presentation and in the first two Grand Prix.
It's a solid single bar at the front and two small long bars supporting the rear end.
