Red Bull's already-dominant RB6 will feature an F-duct for the first time this year during Friday practice in Turkey.

Back-to-back race winner Mark Webber confirmed the news during Thursday's FIA press conference at Istanbul Park. Team boss Christian Horner had already announced recently that the team would begin experimenting with the concept in Turkey.

"We are doing the research and for sure at the next couple of races we will have a look at it, but we will only introduce it when it earns a place on the car," he said after Monaco.

Also using similar rear wing-stalling solutions in Turkey will be pioneers McLaren, as well as Force India, Ferrari, Sauber, Williams and Mercedes.
