AM runs lower to the ground so bumps more. If Merc ran that low to the ground, it would break the car.
Have you read it somewhere and now copy past into this thread? Because I prefer to believe my eyes, and I can see and recognize the difference, when the car hits the bump on the straight and when it's shaking due to much stiffer suspension settings.
Yes Merc is softer than AMR. AMR has looked stiff since it's first runs in testing. AMR is a great car but they ran stiff. The w14 looks good ride-wise. There could still be something wrong with the way their suspension interacts with the aero especially of the floor, but the ride quality of the car at the moment on track is good, as you sayavantman wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 00:14Have you read it somewhere and now copy past into this thread?

Mercedes looked super comfy, like true Merc all weekend.
I've seen Toto say that but about the RB and that their car would break if they tried to run it as low as RB doesavantman wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 00:14Have you read it somewhere and now copy past into this thread?

Exactly, that's what I thought. Toto or any other random so-called expert(often having certain agenda) throws something in the air and people starting to repeat it blindly. Why is it so tough even to try think critically I wonder.Luscion wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 06:34I've seen Toto say that but about the RB and that their car would break if they tried to run it as low as RB doesavantman wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 00:14Have you read it somewhere and now copy past into this thread?

This is what Aston Martin has currently.

From a fellow layman, I agree with you . Maybe having the cooling hardware out wide and away from the centreline wouldn't be good?
Yeah they are similar, do Aston run any hardware at all inside the outer wall sections, or aero inside them like a nosecone S duct?F1Krof wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 14:32This is what Aston Martin has currently.

thr beauty with the current cooling solution is they dont even need to have the hardware outwide. So they can have total freedom in shaping those ears.ajprice wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 13:45The U-podsYouhavebeendunn wrote: ↑07 Mar 2023, 13:14With all the trend of water slide side pods, I wonder why mercedes hasn’t tried to replicate the solution of the MP4-26?
