Sidepods squeezed

Smaller brake ducts

Man, what a looker ! Even wtih the halo ! That's a lesson from Ferrari on how the halo should be done.

Dunno if anyone mentioned but it will be driven on track this Sunday before testing

So air goes through the mirror housings and into the top sidepod opening? Anyone remembering something like that?

[Santozini]

Any theories regarding the air intakes on the mirrors?

[dren]

It looks like the air might be split by the internal cone shape and exhausted around the edge of the mirror and mirror body surround.

Mirror aerodynamic development is mostly dictated by the aim of reducing the drag of a flat reflective surface. Curving the top and bottom surface around substantially reduced drag. However, any 'boat tailing' added to a baseline mirror configuration would still generate a wake behind that sends lossy flow on top of the sidepod and towards the top of the diffuser.



Ferrari opened up the front of the mirror, which fills in the wake behind the mirror with a fresh, more energetic freestream air. It also decreases profile drag as the pressure difference between upstream and downstream of the mirror is reduced because of this channel (top and bottom duct).

Fairly innovative, I would say the mirror wings are in the same class as the RB nose hole.

But MUCH easier to copy.

Yes, I think these mirrors are going to appear up and down the grid very quickly.

one can see the Mirror detail here but if you look closely at the suspension at the back...

Guys, what are those 2 things on the airbox? Looks like 2 wings. I've seen them only in this pic. Is there maybe a render error, or tried they to photoshop something out?

Yup - they're a little droopy mini T wing. Here's another shot:

Not in the air box

Is the wing on the engine cover fin

Seemingly T-wings were only limited by placement height, not width.

How are they gonna cool those engines?

Inlets are freaking small. Note that outer part of sidepod is hollow

Factor in the topside inlet area, as well. The total inlet area is not so unusual.
