In my experience Joe Saward rarely gets anything right. He's just some jumped up toff with an opinion and no real knowledge.
Apparently, Bruno Senna's friends back in Brasil have been tweeting that he's got the job. All will be revealed I guess.
Scarbs I'm fairly sure it's banned, as the chassis height is limited to 550mm at the front bulkhead, as well as a point 1950mm ahead of the back of cockpit entry template (150mm ahead of conventional front bulkhead). Any drop would have to be vertical.scarbs wrote:I hear williams will have the same dolphin nose as Ferrari are rumoured to be running. That is a low (sub 550mm) nose then rising up in a slope to a high front bulkhead (at 625mm).

The front bulkhead must also still be 275mm high, even if its moved forward 150mm.
What I am unsure on is the wording of the underside of the tub, which requires a 'linear taper', can you shed some light on this regulation.
I'm 100% certain the dolphin and other noses are banned, and that we won't see them, although they look nice, so I hope I'm wrong!

The front bulkhead isn't limited I think, its the nose height thats limited.Tozza Mazza wrote:Because the rules say so.FrukostScones wrote:why is the height of the front bulkhead limited to 550mm..?Tozza Mazza wrote: Scarbs I'm fairly sure it's banned, as the chassis height is limited to 550mm at the front bulkhead, as well as a point 1950mm ahead of the back of cockpit entry template (150mm ahead of conventional front bulkhead).
