Haas VF-26

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.

I like the engineering of it. Nice and tidy. Looks like it can comfortably take heat, as any one person would hope. What a fun bit of development

Those bargeboards are wild. I wonder why they want to upwash the wake. Is it just to stop it from getting ingested in the floor?
Ejecting the wheel wake up, out, and away from the rest of the car, and probably creates local downforce too. I didn't think that the regs would allow this level of complexity here, and am curious how far these teams will take it. No way we get back to the sculptural bargeboards of old but there's clearly room for some creativity.

They are starting to look quite complex already. Obviously the rules severely limit development in the region. I'd love more development freedom in the area so we could get very high complexity.
