Aston Martin AMR26

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 still can't understand how the least powerful engine requires the most cooling openings at the back of the car
They use the same amount of fuel (fuel flow limit), but produce more heat and less mechanical power than the others. Makes sense.

Yeah, less combustion efficiency, so less hp and more heat. Agreed.

If the ignition designs were good enough, less energy would be wasted, and if the design requires the engine to run hotter, they would do this by less cooling. Because once they achieve the fast combustion, the engine won't get that hot.
