Yea that sounds more like they are increasing efficiency by improving something else mechanically rather than combustion; like power on the power stroke, but aren't actually improving available energy from the combustion itslef.
It would be good to test whole update.I don't know what are they waiting for.Hasegawa: "In Azerbaijan we will bring some news about combustion. We do not know yet whether we will bring the whole package or the intermediate news, but there will be news that will help the riders. The situation is very complicated and we are doing our best to get out of this terribly difficult situation. "
Melbourne spec 2.0?godlameroso wrote: ↑20 Jun 2017, 00:09Spec 1 was pre-season, spec 2 was Melbourne, spec 2.1 was China spec 2.2 was Bahrain test, spec 2.3 was Barcelona, so maybe this is spec 2.4?
Posts like this baffle me. Presumably they're waiting for ... the update. They are still working on it. Updates don't traverse a binary path from non-existent to existent, there is quite a lot of work in between thinking of something and the finished working example, sometimes including a bit where you find out it doesn't work as you thought and you have to modify it, or just do something else altogether.alexa wrote: ↑20 Jun 2017, 11:55It would be good to test whole update.I don't know what are they waiting for.Hasegawa: "In Azerbaijan we will bring some news about combustion.

Wow.. this is what I want to hear.

OK, yup it would have more peak power with higher energy density.
I like this man's statements. I was expecting from Renault to be best at the end of this season but reliability cease their plans. I hope Honda also be good next year. That's too bad 3 PU per driver in a season. I don't even like 1 PU for 5 race. It becomes LeMan like something. I think it must not go far from 1 PU for 5 race.alexa wrote: ↑20 Jun 2017, 21:20Meanwhile Renault is clearly sending a message that they are willing to supply 4th team (read McLaren)

I think it would be wise to consider engine without performance mode restrictions that Mercedes imposes.Renault are not that far off,and next year they will probably match Merc and Ferrari.
He has done these things before, I doubt there is anything signed.nzjrs wrote: ↑20 Jun 2017, 18:33I don't know how much one should trust Ted, but he speaks about Honda going to Mercedes as a done deal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5sqbKX6gQg
