This forum contains threads to discuss teams themselves. Anything not technical about the cars, including restructuring, performances etc belongs here.
It looks like the Astons are about 4.5% down in top speed while on ICE alone, compared to most others. Feel free to derive a more precise delta if you wish. That is good enough for government work, me thinks.
Assuming equal drag and with power drag changing with the cube of speed, we get that the Astons ICe delivers about 87.1% of th epower of the average other car.
13% deficit on ICE alone. Not quite the 100 HP rumored, but a lot! Is that like 65 HP?
They'd of course also be missing durng acceleration...
it seems like theyve had a pretty good idea about hp numbers since about 2 races in. whoever "they" are. i wonder what they say about average HP per lap with deployment/charging going on.
So that is an interesting question. I think I'd like to know how much each PU manufacturer recharge in a lap. In quali, any given lap of a race and the average recharge during all the laps of a race. It should be something in live timing but it's not.
yeah the complete absence of any data on batteries during races is pretty surprising. i wonder if they decided not to show it because itd show how much advantage some engines have over others. instead theyre just keeping everybody in the dark. this season is the weirdest that i can remember.
