Man I wish Super Aguri was still around...

 

Interesting read on the new floor, which might be the thing causing them problems.

Also interesting, if they can make it work they may gain back some of the downforce lost by the silly new rear wings.

Gota love dem engineers

damn, i hope you don't pass out and die from lack of oxygen.

 

that was an interesting read doug. the floor could be a partial reason to their slower testing pace, but definitely not the entire reason.

 

they are prolly sand bagging if not good... since ima huge ferrari fan..


hehe they are a good team in tehy can turn things around in a matter of days if not hours..

McLaren are and will be fine. They are gathering data. In their last two tests of the year, McLaren are testing with Pitot-static tubes to try and understand why the car is not doing what the wind tunnel said it would do. If this does work, I"m sure it will be used by other teams in some other form. The problem is that these tubes interfere with the flow field thereby creating even more drag. Of course, they won't be running them during a race as they are only for testing.

 

what are you talking about? all the teams use Pitot tubes to evaluate the airflow around the car. Why do you think they put those tall extensions on the tops of the cars in testing?

 

not all the teams are using them like McLaren at the moment

 

oh ok. i just saw this pictures. you're right, that's new.
