Thread has turned to hog slop. Flush it mods! I command thee!
Next month? Silverstone? I don't think so. From whom do you have this information @godlameroso?
Don't get too hung up on spec #, updates are chosen because they want to close the gap. If they make a step forward with the engine, it'll go on the car. Considering teams bring another chassis evolution around Silverstone, I would guess they want to time the two upgrades together.Wouter wrote: ↑03 Jun 2019, 14:41Next month? Silverstone?

That would not be wise, because in Hungary they can use spec 2,
so until Spa / Monza they use only 2 or 3 races the spec 3, because then comes spec 4.
Moreover, RBR wants in Austria an engine with a lot of power, so more if the spec 2 has.
Henry: There isn’t much confusion on my part concerning the word ‘mode’. It’s a noun and an umbrella word similar to the mode control we find on cameras. ‘Mode one’ on a formula one race car would likely have sub-settings arranged in an orderly way under the aforementioned header such as ‘engine temperature prestart’ ‘torque demand off’ to prevent the engine RPM being accidentally increased above its prescribed RPM limit of one thousand RPM following initial engine start. This condition may last for as long as it takes to check for leakage of any fluids both visually and any pressure anomalies indicated on a nearby connected laptop. I’m not party to much detail concerning what else may be contained within ‘mode one’ but I’ll bet there’s quite a few more. Moving on, ‘mode two’ may have a duplex telemetry checking system ‘send receive data’ concerning wheels on ground corner weight, tyre temp’, rake setting and suspension rates, fuel load and all manner of other items the race engineer would want to monitor at all times by means of his laptop and the car hasn’t even left the garage yet! Next we have ‘mode three’ and under this designation we find the more obvious track settings, brake temperature front rear, torque demand settings engine temperature out-lap and I’ll bet a whole host more. The car returns from shake-down and is garaged. Goodness knows what they find to do now, perhaps they all have a cup of tea? Setup race ‘mode four’ as likely as not includes torque demand settings yet again, brake temps, water and oils temps and numerous other items, which again I’m not party to but I’ll bet ignition timings and hybrid input rears it’s ugly head are all in there.henry wrote: ↑30 May 2019, 12:39I think there is confusion from the use of the word mode.
The torque map the failed to be correctly was probably the pedal to torque demand map
The mode change at the end of the race was to a higher energy mode using different ERS and ICE mappings. It’s what Mercedes call Strat.
My guess is the start torque map is less progressive, more sudden, than the race map since it’s only expected to be used in a straight line.
