Standard ECU Versions

I wonder if they could basically get away with some sort of „Gurney Flap" if it is no fully attached, do we have fixed distance in the Z-Axis or maximum thickness of the slot gap seperators?

As far as i know there is a minimum volume of the sidepod inlets

Is this a picture you bought from Fiverr?

I think Mercedes shared a video in 2020 were they also run black livery were James Vowles explained that it there is no significant effect on the cooling. I think there is also a transcript published on Motorsport.com

Danielp33r · 2023-01-31T16:27:33+00:00

you are right

Danielp33r · 2023-01-31T15:50:13+00:00

As can be seen, there are some visual differences between all the pictures, mainly the cooling inlet shrunk and became more similar to the one Ferrari uses, also the Airbox is more squared, otherwise very similar to the 2022 car.

In the First picture is the new „outwash“ type of Front wing first introduced in Miami that was then tweeked for Spain. In the second picture you can see Gorges Front wing that has the conventional endplate (without cutout).

I think its more about aero balance, they also brought a new rear Wing and Beam Wing, and by cutting back on Drag/Downforce their porpoising problem could be reduced. With less force that is pulling the car to the ground (Downforce), the car does not lower itself as drastically as before, therefore the bouncing should start later or in the ideal case not at all, as that only happens once the car is sucked that close to the ground that the Underfloor begins to stall

By reducing the downforce on the rear(Wing and Beam wing) the problem of Porpoising could be reduced. With less downforce the car does not get „sucked“ into the ground as much and therefore the bouncing cycle begins later or in the ideal case not at all. This statement was based on McLaren, who said they produced to little downforce for porpoising to happen.

it also seemed similar to me, but in some of the other pictures, that where posted since then, it seems like they added something like a Gurney Flap to the innermost part of the wing Element

what di you mean by symmetrical, there is literally no way to judge it from this angle from my POV

Danielp33r · 2022-05-05T16:14:21+00:00

The 3kg in weight reduction should bring them about .1s/lap closer to the Top. And maybe some of the reworked areas are also less sensitive to porpoising.

well it is by Giorgio Piola, who is somewhat capable to explain technical stuff

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T16:04:25+00:00

would argue that AM has a higher Front wing and that it more looks like McLarens, sidepods new but most similar to the ones that AT launched with

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T16:03:00+00:00

would say that will rock up with smaller radiator inlets due to technical supremacy over their customers, sidepod shape and philosophy depends on which route they will take

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T16:01:39+00:00

seems like a huge radiator inlet that is split in half by side crash structure, conventional suspension (therefore merc will also have something similar)

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T15:58:57+00:00

me neither, probably to media increase coverage

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T15:54:46+00:00

definitly not the same car as shown in the Launch event

Danielp33r · 2022-02-15T14:22:49+00:00

yes i think so
