The W13 is now the fastest car
I knew someone was going to say this. Once Lewis threatens for a win then does eventually win, it will be because his turd of a car turned to a rocket ship during parc ferme.
I can assure you, redbull is still the fastest.
I think the flexi floor is being misunderstood. Earlier I mentioned the floor may have a suspension. It is for this purpose, to flex the floor where the plank is. The flexing is not about the floppy parts on the ends. You want to flex the part that touches the ground to have better control of the distance from the track; since its a solid body thats giving it that control.
What I think also enhances this, is the ridges on the step plane on the redbull and ferrari. Redbull have the ridges to the front and Ferrari have the ridges to the rear. The floor will have stress concentration at the ridges, and it's flex can be controlled very precisely. Ferrari is controlling flex at the diffuser, redbull is doing it at the entrance to the floor.
The flexing is happening at 1,2,3
