Very weird because this exhaust is illegal

The photos you posted earlier clearly show a different angle. Here the exhaust is pointing directly to the floor... Couldn't it be just temporally disassembled?

It is testing. Maybe they are testing how much heat the floor can withstand.

where does the exhaust point?

some say it points downwards

we see heat sensors hat the suspension. so the exhaust blows on the beam wing?

my guess is that the pipe extending downwards is not the exhaust...just bodywork to take advantage of the coanda effect...the bit extending down is probably not a closed pipe...

Yeah, honestly didn't even think about that. Similar to this extension. Think you're right.

I leave you guys alone for a bit, and it appears you've all lost your minds.

Those dirty, dirty slots on the front wing have been around since Round 2 in Malaysia. They work in conjunction with the tiny vents on the end plates to create vortices that direct the air flow away from the tires. The end plates used to do this job alone, but that configuration sacrificed surface area on the front wing for the sake of that outwash effect.

Yes, this look like it.

BTW Alonso sets fastest lap time for now 1:23.947 (23)

EDIT:
1:23.392 (28) But it's still wet.

Now we know that the acer pipes will not dissapear in barcelona.

[Mr.G]

I looking at it too and wonder if it the track still wet or it starts drying, or what

it must be drying because he is going faster and faster with the same set of tires

(i know that times do not belong here...mods please move them to the appropriate place and i'm sorry for the trouble)

[Mr.G]

Yes, it looks like each driver get better lap time during last 10 min.

EDIT:

InsideFerrari Morning session finished with @alo_oficial quickest in 1.22.44 and 38 laps completed. It will be a long break now due to changes on the car.

Now they put some new stuff on the car
