A nose box or nose cone is a structure to which the front wing is attached. It directs the airflow towards the floor of the car, and acts as a shock absorber in case of accidents. It is made of high strength composite materials and is subjected to various load tests by the FIA to ensure its rigidity.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.f1technical.net/articles/11|title=Nose Cone design|work=F1technical.net|date=September 2013 |access-date=1 June 2024|archive-date=15 May 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240515001338/https://www.f1technical.net/articles/11|url-status=live}}</ref> The [[Halo (safety device)|halo]] is a safety device mounted on the cockpit, and is made of series of curved metal bars intended to protect the driver's head during crashes.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://en.f1i.com/news/290164-fia-approves-formula-1s-first-halo-supplier.html |title=The FIA approves Formula&nbsp;1's first supplier to the Halo |date=16 January 2018 |work=F1i.com |access-date=28 March 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180329204733/http://en.f1i.com/news/290164-fia-approves-formula-1s-first-halo-supplier.html |archive-date=29 March 2018 |url-status=live}}</ref> The air box is situated behind the cockpit, and serves as the receptacle of the high speed air moving over the body. It supplies the pressurized air to the engine intakes, boosting its power and absorbs the turbulence generated from the air passing over the driver's helmet. Air filters are used to filter the dirty air before being passed into the engines.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.racecar-engineering.com/articles/f1/technology-explained-f1-airboxes-filters/|title=Air boxes and filters|work=Racecar engineering|date=12 April 2013 |access-date=1 June 2024|archive-date=4 March 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210304191511/https://www.racecar-engineering.com/articles/f1/technology-explained-f1-airboxes-filters/|url-status=live}}</ref>
