Thats why I ask what it is coolingsaviour stivala wrote: ↑16 Sep 2018, 13:35Any coolant liquid on the car is not ‘used’ in the sense of the ward like fuel and oil are used-up, there is no consumption. Where it leaks off too depends on the leak.
Hot air is also less dense.Dex35 wrote: ↑18 Sep 2018, 00:12I have often wondered if there was an "incidental" function associated with the infrared temperature scanners for the rear tires. Namely as tire heaters. An "incidental" flow of air from inside the chassis and out thru the "nodule". Air flow itself is fixed (no moveable aerodynamic devices), but the fluid flow through the heat exchanger is variable. A nice warm breeze on the rears whilst blasting down those cold straights.
It may show the drivers eye view when he is 'overlaying' his lap on another? I know everyone would have most of it, but notations etc?roon wrote: ↑18 Sep 2018, 21:49T-cam feed whilst in the pits and on the grid usually doesn't usually make it to broadcast. FIA/FOM/Liberty may have access, and potentially other teams could view this feed as well? Who turns the cameras on and when? Who would potentially be able to view steering wheel screens during these times?
First off, allegedly cheatingdjones wrote: ↑02 Oct 2018, 14:12So when it was declared legal by the FIA, what they actually meant was it was undetectable with the current sensor configuration. Add a 2nd sensor and this extra power is no longer available.
So they were never using the method people had discussed on here where the rules permitted unlimited energy via a certain route.
Ferrari were simply cheating and directing more power than allowed in the rules, but in a way that was not via the standard sensor.
Which is not clever engineering like a flexy-wing etc. Its just dirty cheating.
