Aston Martin AMR22

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.

The new cars, while more proportional than the old, are HUGE. Look how small the driver looks in it.

For as trick as these cars are, it’s still fun to see tape over the brake ducts. :lol:

No larger than last year with wheelbase length capped at 3.6m. Some cars can be a few cm longer, others will be shorter by a few (mainly mercedes). I believe it's entirely a non-issue, if anything wheelbase should be capped further down to like 3.4m or something like that, maybe even less. Kills two birds with one stone, shorter cars and easier to get down to weight limit without fear of losing out by reducing aero generating surfaces.

The reason for separation of them was to increase the car engine volume isnt it? Why now they are going back to single pipe?
I think they worked out it didn't help.
I hope it doesn't decrease the sound, but I personally like this look more.
The waste gate pipes looked so weird
It will definitely reduce the sound volume and rawness. They shot themselves in the foot a bit with this change. Originally back in 2016 wastegate tail pipe was separated from main exhaust exactly with the purpose of increasing the sound. Now we're going back to 2014-2015 levels of dullness. There's really only one plausible scenario as to why this change came about: teams didn't want others to know when they're using their maximum attack modes, and even more importantly for how long, as this gives away a lot of info about your ERS capabilities. Back in 2015 when this was implemented FOM used just a single microphone attached close to engine that wasn't able to pick up open wastegate sounds, but then in 2018 they started using an additional microphone that was installed in proximity of the exhaust and then it was clear as day when someone was going flat out.

Can be heard in this clip:

So do I and I'd say it's just the louvres. :wink:
I agree to disagree.I'm just gonna share a couple of the reasons why I disagree.

In the image inside the side pod on our right has shadows made from the louvres - enhance the image and look on the vertical wall of the chassis to see those shadows. The camera angle is symmetrical so we should be seeing directly through the louvres on that side too, not just shadows- but that is not the case.

And also on our left side the gaps and curvature of your would be louvres is not in agreement with what we see from other views.

Anyway my two cents. We can move on.

Looks planted :D - joking. Love the look of the AMR22. Great colors and good looking car. Car looks bigger because tires are bigger.

Oh yeah, the wheel covers look ATROCIOUS.

Some key features immediately stood out, including a front wing featuring a slight arch in the middle to allow more air under the nose and towards the floor. There are also side-pods with an unusual dual opening for cooling air entering the body.
What does he mean by dual openings?

Well, a looker it ain't. That front wing, especially the endplates are just too indycar.
