Aero physics improvements :
There were two main problems with the downforce calculations in previous S2 Alpha versions : (1) Leaning your car backwards could make the downforce aim slightly forwards, giving a noticeable reduction in drag. This led to the "high nose exploit" and is clearly wrong. It has now been fixed so we won't see everyone using raised front suspension any more. (2) The reduction in drag and downforce when slipstreaming was too severe and acted over the whole car equally, usually causing the loss of rear end grip if you drove too close behind another car in a corner. The effect has been reduced significantly, and is different on the front and rear wings. You now expect to lose more grip on the front end, and not lose control of the car completely, so closer racing is now possible in the cars with downforce.
