There was an explanation provided for that by Ted Kravitz.
so are they abandoning their novel legality strip concept if theyre intending to use this wing going forward? maybe the gains with the former was not enough to outweigh the imbalances.zibby43 wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 15:41There was an explanation provided for that by Ted Kravitz.
“"Did it work? Given Russell was on the new and Lewis was on the old, what does it say as to why Lewis was quicker than George?
"The team say it's not down to the front wing. Russell had a big axel and front brake vibration which limited his progress throughout the session.
That made a true read on the efficiently of the front wing pretty tricky.
"They do believe the new front wing is doing what it should be, even though the benefit of downforce here is a little bit decreased compared to some other circuits we go to.”
I think that’s likely the case, particularly if we see both cars adopt moving forward. The scope of the changes implemented signal a new design direction as opposed to circuit-specific tweaks.cplchanb wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 15:48so are they abandoning their novel legality strip concept if theyre intending to use this wing going forward? maybe the gains with the former was not enough to outweigh the imbalances.zibby43 wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 15:41There was an explanation provided for that by Ted Kravitz.

Lewis used the old front wing, Russell used the new oneFormula 1 fan wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 16:55Were both cars driven with all the new upgrades in first practice?

Most likely to compare the new one to the old, get an idea of if it's working as expected and the difference between the two, if anyFormula 1 fan wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 16:57Okay, why didn't both cars use new front wings?Luscion wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 16:55Lewis used the old front wing, Russell used the new oneFormula 1 fan wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 16:55Were both cars driven with all the new upgrades in first practice?
