Actually, I'd guess they'd keep the hole covered when not connected.

Who knows, Bahrain may not be a track they want to use it either?Pup wrote:Can't advise you on the thread thing - it's sort of a lottery. Maybe best if you post the picture in this one, the question in the other, and then we can all reply in the third.

Well, with a couple of long straights and mostly med-low speed corners I think it is among the best places to use any gimmic that gives you a couple of kph without sacrificing the low-speed grip.ringo wrote:Who knows, Bahrain may not be a track they want to use it either?

disagree, on other pics it is clearly to see that the fin is fat, thus there has to be air flowing in, certainly when there is known to be a gap on the second element wich has to be fed.

How come the other teams dont put more effort into cooling/packaging like redbull. In the beginning of testing it looked like Mclaren did, but now at the last test, they showed their real hot air outlets, very bulky and fat. If Redbull can make that tight an ass without a big outlet why cant the others. Is there not enough to gain or ??
Is this rear wing 'spec A' with the alleged slot, or quick, Charlies on his way over, drop the other one on?Pup wrote:Interesting shot - you can really tell here just how round the fin is. Or is it in fact more round than before? Who was it who said there was a version with a more cylindrical section coming soon?

No light reflecting through the hole above the air intake either. Looks like they blocked it up temporarily.Shaddock wrote:Is this rear wing 'spec A' with the alleged slot, or quick, Charlies on his way over, drop the other one on?Pup wrote:Interesting shot - you can really tell here just how round the fin is.
