Mercedes definately dont..
Could you explain what you mean by this because to me it looks like the front wing is parallel to the floor unless under load whereas the front of the plank [t-tray area] is whatever the rake angle the car is.roon wrote: ↑22 Jun 2018, 22:32Illustrates relationship between FW height and the forward edge of the plank/t-tray. Although not apparent in this image, the FW footplate and floor/plank are parallel and raked at the same angle, by decree. Sometimes the rear edge of the FW footplate pivots downward under aero loading.
Could you please show us on what data you based your conclusion that McLaren's bad results are linked to their introduction of a new nosecone? It would certainly add a lot to the discussion.
Hey that´s brilliant, a car with only two axles, but no Z, will solve all of their drag problemsollandos wrote: ↑22 Jun 2018, 17:18socking to watch this car on track......my view ...the car is too sort too heavy with very bad weight balance and managment ...looks like to heavy at the middle part of the car and that cut the car too 3 sector ..and not on 2 ..(axles)
mclaren must build brand new car ...longer with must possible less weight and center of gravity lower and much more to the rear of the car ....the mcl33 looks like a car with 3 axle ..the 2 majors on the front and middle ..and the real rear like helping wheels of baby bicylce ..if you remember any one owner of this baby bicycles you cant go fast ..because ..the small wheel diameter ..limit the big one ...the problems of the car is something similar ...you can not go faster even x more power or x more downforce ...bigger wheelbase move weight at the back and lower ...remove us must possible weight from the middle part of the car ...

A couple of laps before the V safety, the commentator said Alonso had pitted for softest tyres to try for fastest lap. Probably had a mis-hap trying too hard.
IIRC it was on (his) lap 50roon wrote: ↑24 Jun 2018, 21:57What lap was that?iichel wrote: ↑24 Jun 2018, 21:22Broken upper wishbone for the #14 McLaren

Isn't that the same wheel side that Vettel tapped?wesley123 wrote:Last lap I believe.
But it's interesting, how would that have happened?
