In theory one may think that you are penalized with rear wing obstruction, but if the floor works much better as a result of bringing the cooling up then you are still gaining performance by doing so in spite of the small loss of rear wing performance. You would much rather take floor performance than rear wing performance if you are able.PhillipM wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 17:55You know those massive upper ducts they have behind the halo almost feel to me like they're considering basically inverting last years sidepods.
I.E - Take this years inlets and put the bulk at the top and take the hot air through the upper tunnels behind the Halo there whilst tapering the sidepods away completely.....it almost lines up with some of the existing contouring.
These might not be the actual sidepods that we'll see into the season?

Except for the part where the engine wasn't running properly? lol.
I sure hope Mercedes hasn't gone "so aggressive" with their map that it can't survive installation laps.Venturiation wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 17:59could the rumored more hp causing this?pursue_one's wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 17:29Apparently Mercedes’ shakedown did not go according to plan.
It was a mounting issue which caused ignition problems.Venturiation wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 17:59could the rumored more hp causing this?pursue_one's wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 17:29Apparently Mercedes’ shakedown did not go according to plan.
