Whoever they hire will not start to help for a month or so.makecry wrote: ↑29 May 2024, 03:30Regardless of who they hire. I believe there is something fundamentally wrong with their tools and how their data is acquired. There has been reports of a disconnect between direction the track engineers want vs the guys back at factory. They have brought more performance parts than anyone else and yet have regressed. They need to stop further upgrades and figure out where they have gone wrong. The whole mix and match, repeated testing etc is clearly a sign of a team that has no idea where they are heading. Lawrence will not tolerate that at all but at the end of the day, Lawrence is not an engineer and doesn't necessarily understand the processes that go behind engineering a complex machine like this.
Dan says they already know the problem. Don't
forget this upgrade might have been in the simulator at a minimum, the week before Imola, so 3 weeks. It could easily have been in the simulator 4 to 6 weeks ago or more. I have no idea, I have to trust they know what they're doing.
I got the impression from when Alonso said "it was hard to drive in the simulator", that they knew the upgrade was gonna be hard to drive going in, just not as hard as it's turned out to be.
More DF might be there but if the drivers don't trust it....They go slower.
