The F-duct name

Remember the F-duct in F1? It was first seen on the MP4-25 in 2010.By covering a hole in the cockpit it stalled the rear wing and increased top speed and was the thing that brought in the DRS system. Last night I discovered that it got it's name from the inlet duct on the McLaren's location in the "f" in Vodafone. This seems like something I should have known.

That's well known isn't it?
Good fact though.

Good fact, and so obvious now.
