I see. I don't understand why that needs to be written into the regs though, as it's something the engineers can quite easily solve themselves.RicME85 wrote:The space inside f the rear wheels is the same but the width of the wing itself is wider so the endplate has to curve to be able to be mounted in the same place as at present
It is a temporary situation - it adapts to the 2015 car's floor.Blaze1 wrote:I don't really like the way the Ferrari rear wing end-plates narrow at mid-point. The combination of being being tall and narrowing puts me off. I much prefer the style of rear wings in the images of the older cars you posted, e.g McLaren MP4/8 etc.wuzak wrote:I think that the high and wide rear wing like on the Ferrari test car.

isnt floor also part of bodywork in regulation? Because by regulations sidepods can be wide as floor (max)henry wrote:Agreed. The regs have max side pod width 1400, same as now, and Max floor 1600.Paul wrote:Sidepods look too wide.
3.4.1 Bodywork width between the front and the rear wheel centre lines must not exceed 1600mm.

This, FOM are butchering the sound with dynamic range compression technology. They've been doing it for years, even the V8 tv sound was rubbish compared to in the flesh.PhillipM wrote:The main issue with the sound is the quality of it on the FOM feed is terrible. All the youtube videos filmed from testing this year sound, much, much better.
I don't know about all the rest but with that I totally agree.That said, I still think producers do a terrible job covering races.
