Ferrari F1-75

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

What's going on under the "San" of Santander on the nose in this profile shot? There are a couple of downward sloping (downward from front to back) curved lines or slots.

those side "tubes" on the sidepods remind me on the Acer ducts..

Also details around the front of the floors are hidden it seems.
Reminds me of a sombrero.

Sombrero sidepods. Got a ring to it. :lol: =D>

Nice horn wings on the sides of the engine intake. The front wing went with a lower front section for better ground effect and adjustments are on the central section.

Here's thought about the sombrero sidepods - if there's a wet race, those sidepods are going to become lakes whilst the car is sat on the grid. Then when it pulls away, that water is going to go backwards on to the rear end / rear tyres.

I realise wet race starts are relatively rare, but I wonder if they thought about it...

I think this is not the first race car with concave top surface somehwere on the bodywork. They will be fine.

Drivers are equipped with a red solo cup during wet races for bailing water.

It's just the underside of the front wing on the other side of the car.

The rear of the sidepods looks like the McLaren MP4-26 sidepods, just with a conventional intake rather than the L shape.

Wasn’t Pat Fry involved in both?

I think that it is not fully concave, toward the back there is a drop and it would drain out.

I don't have enough Aerodynamic knowledge to understand what they are trying to do there to be honest.

It seems the airflow from the sidepods is being directed towards the top of the beam-wings?
