Aston Martin Racing has become the first team to show off a real 2022 Formula One car after Haas limited themselves to a rendering and Red Bull painted a show car to keep their secrets hidden.
I love the subtle irony of this year's Aston Martin F1 contender flanked by road cars that Newey had a hand in designing.
Front wing definitely design to try to encourage some outwash with the outboard being reminiscent of last generation front wings. Also, the shape of the trailing edge would suggest they're looking to shed a structure along the inside face of the front tyre.
The bit around the 18 they have to have a 45mm radius on the edges at the AA planeGiando wrote: ↑10 Feb 2022, 16:40https://postimg.cc/75GLQHZR
They reduced the section of the monocoque above and below, no more on the sides of nose.
The actual car has push rod suspension
Lord, the HAAS sidepods look sexy in comparison!
The fear of spec cars seems unfounded. Maybe the philosophies won't be as varied as previous generations but even the first two cars look plenty different.
I wonder if the AM idea is to keep the hot messy air coming from the cooling vents from getting down to the top of the diffuser. By having that big "shelf" at the rear of the sidepod, "clean" air from the front of the car can be channelled where they want it.
Yes it almost reminds me the F92A double floor... or at least the first iteration of the RedBull from 2006
I gotcha. My only worry is that HAAS(*Ferrari) had sooooo much development time and resources that they may be the most iterations ahead in the search for the Prime solution...
