Ferrari F10

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.

I see, cost savings have finally arrived at Ferrari
this solution could be straight out of Formula Ford, or there road cars (clamps)
who says F1 has no road car relevance ?
F1 is Ferrari´s testbed for their road car fluid systems !!! :lol:

That black tank hooked up to the red hose hanging next to the floor, would that be the famous nitrous tank, that alledgedly caused some of the early-season pneumatic valve issues due to the lack of refilling during longer pitstops? Or is this something else?

Hmmm..this is interesting. Is it an exit from an intake maybe on the tea tray or is it an intake to alleviate the pressure behind the barge board?

EDIT. Clearly that is an intake of some sort. Im an idiot.

That duct could be for the F-Duct meganism, for cooling of electronics or other systems or, simply to feed the DDD

note:
no flexures used in the front suspension. (at least not at the front lower wishbone)
some on the rear

From the look of it the connection is flexture, with a fairing.

Agreed about the rears, but I think fronts are flextures. The lower surface of the wishbone is IMO at precisely the level of the tub, can't be done with ball-joints, right?
