It's time to stop pretending we can interpret flow-vis. Let's just appreciate that it's an oldschool visualization tool that the engineers use for real-world feedback.

It's another weekend where Ferrari has the back of the car cut open much more than any other team

Means the engine is very sensitive to higher temperatures. Likely not as great knock-characteristics as Mercedes. If the upcoming combustion upgrade really works, there should be an aero-benefit from less venting on top of the increased power.

Any ideas, opinions why they failed to be the fastest again, like in Monaco?
I have 2:
- their setup simulation is skewed to lesser track conditions, hence they look fast on friday, and fall back saturday sunday
- some big errors regarding tire management, baked in to their systems. When it matters they overheat or can not get it to temp
