The brake ducts look big!
Allison wrote:“We managed to be competitive at tracks which had plagued us in recent years. However, notwithstanding this improvement, we were still not as good as some of our competitors at preserving the performance of the rear tyres.
“We have worked hard on the suspension and aerodynamic characteristics to deliver a car that will be much kinder to its tyres – enough, we hope, to allow us to be competitive at all phases of the race and at each track on the calendar.”
Cowell wrote:“We’ve made changes to the cooling architecture of the Power Unit, which hopefully provide aerodynamic benefit on the car and also provide efficiency benefit on the Power Unit – so, hopefully a win on both the chassis and on the Power Unit,” said Cowell.
“Right at the heart of the Power Unit is the conversion of fuel into heat release in the combustion chamber and useful work out of the crankshaft. We have made steps on the combustion efficiency and on the ERS system.
“The marriage between the turbocharger assembly with the MGU-H, the inverter, the cells and the MGU-K: that whole system is now capable of operating more efficiently and helping with energy deployment through a race.”
I said airbox and not just the intake on the Renault thread and the merc airbox is nowhere near as fat as the Renault. The Renault is just a piece of slab beef whereas this merc one is sculpted, tapered and foiled after the intake with a purpose. I can tell straight away that this car is championship material. The championship will just depend on Ferrari, Red Bull and Honda.
It looks like nobody choose to use additional fuel. (I think nobody expect from mercedes to use it hence they have very efficient engine and now it looks like they made it better )dren wrote: ↑13 Feb 2019, 13:39More from Allison and Cowell:
