The Force India Formula 1 team tested a new display system developed by Lewis Hamilton's father Anthony in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday morning.
The 'Info Wing' is a small carbon fibre component designed to fit to the top of an F1 car's airbox, where onboard cameras are usually mounted.
Hamilton Sr hopes the Info Wing will improve the spectator experience of F1 by using LEDs to display race information, such as a driver's name, position and the tyre compound they are using.
Force India fitted a prototype of the Info Wing to the VJM08 for a trial run around the Yas Marina circuit on Wednesday morning, overseen by governing body the FIA.
