Default 718 Clubsport wing and 992 GT3

Does everyone notice that the wing risers on the 718 GT4 clubsport look interestingly similar to the one on the 992 GT3 prototype?

It's just a swan-neck style. Pretty much every race car has gone that way. I think they started popping up on LMP cars around 2011.

yep I did! - I would imagine that it will be replaced with something less "racy" in production...

I'm not really sure (and of course this is purely subjective) that the "swan neck" mounting is all that attractive visually ... but I guess we will see in good time ... I would have thought though that if such a change was going to occur that it might also have made it to the new GT4 as well...

This far into the testing it wouldn’t seem very likely to run a non production wing...
