Today Russel was following around one of the mclarens... it will be interesting know what his thoughts areBig Tea wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 21:40Do we have any solid evidence on how these cars interact with each other yet?
Not only close following, but does the air from a passing car disturb the 'ground effect' of either car, and do they take each others air when turning as in sailing?
Edit, by this I mean cornering side by side
As far as following, Leclerc mentioned that from 1s-3s behind you can follower closer, from .5-1s he said there wasn't much difference, but within .5s he said it was much better than last year. Just one driver's point of view.Big Tea wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 21:40Do we have any solid evidence on how these cars interact with each other yet?

Bernie is the reason why f1 is in this situation...he is the one who demanded very large amount of money from classic f1 tracks and sold f1's soul to the so caller new Tilke tracks.

With how limit testing is these days, having your running curtailed by things that break is not good. They still learn from the process though and can fix the things that break in the meantime.
The liberty Moustache man and his wife are literally in it for thee money only.
Kind of suggest overtaking will be like at the beginning kers era, drivers messing with settings to deceive their opponent in the hopes of building up a substantial battery pack charge that they can then use to break through the .5-1s barrier.codetower wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 21:59As far as following, Leclerc mentioned that from 1s-3s behind you can follower closer, from .5-1s he said there wasn't much difference, but within .5s he said it was much better than last year.

George & Lando reported that the slip stream was massively reduced, compared to last few years, so echoing the Ferrari drivers comments really, and I suppose what should have been expected reallyWouter wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 22:16Leclerc, Sainz, Max and Albon about following another car.

What does Carey’s wife have anything to do with it?
The new cars are supposed to direct air upwards than sideways like the old cars, which means in a straight line any car behind will have a bigger slipstream effect! But they don't...any ideas why??the EDGE wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 22:44George & Lando reported that the slip stream was massively reduced, compared to last few years, so echoing the Ferrari drivers comments really, and I suppose what should have been expected reallyWouter wrote: ↑25 Feb 2022, 22:16Leclerc, Sainz, Max and Albon about following another car.
