Williams FW36 Mercedes

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Seems to be one single unit, so you can't have the top part without the bottom part.

EDIT: and here's a clear shot of the dash display

The RBR/Williams style display fixed to the cockpit is imo the best solution, I'd find a moving display on my steering wheel annoying as hell!
However, with this configuration the display is blocked from view by the steering wheel during the turns. Overall, this probably wouldn't be a problem for the driver, but on a tight and twisty circuit it might be a bit annoying.

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

Fll background of your photo is blurred bynatural hot air so your drawing is "slightly" incorrect. :roll:

That's interesting, it could act as a suction device.

But it *should* be the feedback way from the waste gate?

Yes, evidence they are using a wastegate.
