Scuderia Ferrari SF70H

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.

Any pictures of the shredded Raikkonen floor? There must have been damage to the part where the suspected cooling in the floor takes place.

This is best I could do

EDIT:

Looking for pictures from this weekend and just realized that they were not using floor with that bulge at rear section of floor

Sky F1 UK kept saying that Ferrari had to take a part off the car after FIA did some checks? They said that it could be an auxiliary oil tank used by engine just for performance gain purposes (as a fuel additive). Are there any articles out there which could shed some light? or is this a just a bunch of speculation nonsence?

It's not that easy to change floor so and manufacture new one. They had I think same floor as in Canada (there was new one introduced)

Sky F1 said it was a small tank - I don't think the tank is necessarily the floor. And this was said pre-practice first. Then they mentioned it again pre-race saying that Ferrari's sudden deficit in Quali was probably due to this. I find it hard to believe after seeing the race pace though.

Christian Horner told to a SKY reporter during the grid walk that a former member of the red team signed for the silver team and notified them of the extra oil tank and its purposes.
