Please proof-read ‘copy-paste’ posts. This makes zero sense!!
I read the article on F1analisitecnica (translated). It's the tweeter's fault who made it look like the cooling of the PU and the speed through the corners might be coupled.
They don’t. The tweet just took random pieces of this article.
I am very confused. All we heard was Ferrari won’t have Split turbo.shamyakovic wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 01:46LM10 wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 00:20Both, The Race and Mark Hughes in an article on the official homepage of Formula 1 wrote that Ferrari is believed to not have adopted the split turbo design.
Considering we’ve not heard a single word of Ferrari actually building a split turbo - while on the other hand it’s been long known that Renault was - I don’t see a reason why we should believe in Ferrari having one. That animation from ChronoGP out of nowhere does not change that, unless they’ve reliable insider information.
This video shows ferrari indeed has split turbo
Not that worried about it and it seems like no one at Ferrari is either. From what I remember hearing from the reveal, they had make some tough choices re aero vs weight. Alfa tried to go for weight and has ended up needing a heavier floor.JPBD1990 wrote: ↑06 Mar 2022, 04:47https://it.motorsport.com/f1/news/f1-ot ... o/8725227/
Ferrari are said to be 5-10kg over the minimum weight. While this is probably nothing but speculation because sources aren’t cited, this is the first article I’ve seen to mention Ferrari and min weight specifically. Previously we’d only heard of Alfa, McLaren and redbull.
I kind of hope it’s not true because 5-10kg is a lot to find ‘out of nowhere’ and may leave them on the back foot.
That’s a comparison against an ideal car. In practice though only Alfa is there, and they will add 5kg, they say, to fix the delicate floor. Merc is 4kg heavier Ferrari is not paying 0.25 but maybe 0.1 at worst.aleks_ader wrote:10kg is give or take 0.25s. ofc depends of CofG and track layout.
Maybe we'll get some proper photos from the Bahrain test to confirm/discredit this.shamyakovic wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 01:46LM10 wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 00:20Both, The Race and Mark Hughes in an article on the official homepage of Formula 1 wrote that Ferrari is believed to not have adopted the split turbo design.

I don’t think it’s ominous or promising regardless of whether they have a split turbo or not. What matters is if they found a good package with good performance. Maybe it’s good to be the only one going a certain way - so long as it’s the right way - as it bakes in an advantage? The bottom line is that the solution is not the important thing, the performance is.mzso wrote: ↑06 Mar 2022, 18:28Maybe we'll get some proper photos from the Bahrain test to confirm/discredit this.shamyakovic wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 01:46LM10 wrote: ↑05 Mar 2022, 00:20Both, The Race and Mark Hughes in an article on the official homepage of Formula 1 wrote that Ferrari is believed to not have adopted the split turbo design.

I think it would be an ominous thing for Ferrari if only they didn't have the thing that everyone gravitated towards.
Leclerc's circulating on the C4 tyres, finding time on Perez. The Ferrari doesn't look particularly porpoisy, just reactive on the bumps.
