Quote from BurnOut69 :

Anyone knows what happened to Petrov's car? Looked like suspension broke up from a hard release

he broke it before the stop apparently.

just finished the second race... nuff said.

Its a matter of reliability. If Vettel had the Brawn last year he would of destroyed Button imo. And this year doesn't seem to of got off to a good start either

didn't they hit 53's in Q2?

Quote from samjh :

Actually you're right. Q3 qualifiers have to race on the tyres they used to set their fastest Q3 lap, so we could possibly see a lot of Q3 drivers getting stuck in traffic after their first and early tyre stop.



The smaller mass is an advantage, but the disadvantage is that their flywheel system can affect the car's handling adversely. The flywheel is a heavy mass rotating at tens of thousands of revolutions per minute. The gyroscopic effect could possibly cause unwanted stability.

The force would be equal and in all directions. If it was a big massive hammer you'd have a point but it's just a disc spinning smoothly.

4 hours to go to FP 1

Victor didn't like my sculpturing.

Yeah thats the one.

nice, reminds me of the spanish le mans car, forgot the name...

what took them so long..

Quote from tristancliffe :

Yup, intentional stalling, to reduce downforce and drag at high speeds, is quite common in F1.

I didn't know that, but it makes sense i guess in terms of drag.

Like the Red Bull, the exhaust exits have been moved towards the rear of the car (large red arrow), whilst air from the gearbox radiator, which has been cooled with the help of air carefully channelled through the airbox (blue arrow), is also utilised for aerodynamic benefit. Directed towards the top of the rear wing's lower section and the diffuser (small red arrows), it intentionally interferes with airflow over these parts at certain speeds, causing them to stall.

Now we can see what the car can really do.

woo woo Predo.

Quote from 5haz :

True, but just like F1, a lot of it really depends on how much money they have.

Well, Lotus is that bum who sits outside the club getting puked on with his dog.

Quite true but the flat surface on the top and sides goes against the thinking of basically the rest of the grid. Now i dunno about you but the guy in the corduroys doesn't usually get as many girls as the guy in the jeans

Well, the Americans disagree with the world and common sense on many things.

simplicity may be, but boxes don't usually do well in a wind tunnel.
