Yesterday a watched a whole race again since months. But can anyone tell me what some of the cars have on the outside of their front tires? Looks like a plastic part is mounted on the rims and is overhanging to the front.
Sorry that I can't explain it better...

You mean like plastic wheel trims?

They help withthe aerodynamics and cooling the brakes etc.

Hope that helps
