Care to explain why the nose won't make it to Oz? I highly doubt they would have even bothered to make to if it was truly that bad. It could turn out to be the best solution so far. You don't win races by having the best looking carwesley123 wrote:How ugly is that?
The car is genial at the rear but soo ugly.
The nose wont make it to australia.
smart to let the sidepods be really low and then large cooling at the top so the lower part can guide air to the diffuser.

PS: nice livery tho
Well I actually think you do, every car that finishes the race 1st and beats the others usually looks pleasing to the eye. Ferrari never make a square looking car and they win, same with mclaren and redbull A (didn't win but looked nice) & B (won). Renault when it won 2 championships looked very nice not so much last year though....Diesel wrote:wesley123 wrote:You don't win races by having the best looking car
I thought it failed the side-impact tests?vyselegend wrote:I have a though suddently. Do you think this horrible nosecone could be a bungled solution to get the car ready for today's test, since the original design reportedly failed two of the mandatory crash tests last week?
Let's see if I hit it until Australia:Diesel wrote:
The body work at the rear looks really clever. It appears to be trying to do that same job as the main flip-up we have seen in previous years, channeling air around and over the top of the diffuser... any thoughts?

With that fences I think they try to create low pressure area at the tip of the nose, notice that they also raised the outer parts of the front wing to get more airflow towards the floor. Idea seems o be reasonable, but I wonder how it will work in yaw conditions.
