Ferrari F1-75

[motobaleno]

Binotto revealed that the double splitter was immediately positively evaluated and installed on the F1-75 after seeing it on the Aston Martin AMR22

in my very humble opinion that's a joke (someone of the old time would call it "english humor")

Something odd with the nose cone.

It seems to be built by two sections!

You can clearly see the junction between the chassis front bulkhead and the 'classic' nose cone between race number 55 and Shell logo and then a second junction, which goes down the entire section, between the Pirelli and Mahle logos, with three bolt heads visible, too, painted in red. Wonder what's its purpose...

Best looking F1 car since i can remember. Love this Ferrari. I hope its the fastest car this year.

Not conviced about new Ferrari's sides.

Aston seems have more space to flow the air from the front to the rear by the "slim zone" beneath radiators

They are going to roll a vortex off those sides with the radiator exhaust.. that vortex will interact with the diffuser. They know ehat they did. This car maybe the most draggy though .. but if Ferrari made the strongest engine..

Agreed 1000% reminds me of a Ferrari 641

Nice!

They are ginourmous intentionally, if they removed the concave factor(which i'm pretty sure isn't necessary for cooling)

I'm pretty sure it is, they're dropping the pressure there by sheilding it with the raised outer sidepod area, to draw cooling air out of the gills better, then using that shoulder to roll it and keep it attached tightly to the centreline of the car to dump it below the rear wing

I have the same opinion.

To my knowledge, the concept is pretty similar to Aston Martin’s, but with the shape of the top of the sidepod, what they get is a drop of pressure that helps the hot air to get out whith less louvres and with less turbulence, paradoxically.

I wonder if what they really want is a low pressure area on the lower section of the engine cover. Not to create downforce but to help the difusser to extract more air.

I like Gary, but I am hoping technology and these rules start a new chapter in “gurus”, and the tools that the teams have simply have allowed them to move beyond what guys like Gary know and can see.

Even Adrian, I’m ready for a “new” Adrian Newey and a new chapter.

I do also worry that these cars are CFD queens, and that some might be complete duds or total divas.

" it doesn’t look like a potentially race-winning car."

Ok Gary

[Jambier]

" it doesn’t look like a potentially race-winning car."

Ok Gary

Hence, it will win championship

Gary Anderson analysis are low quality as usually.

" it doesn’t look like a potentially race-winning car."

Ok Gary

I’m happy that’s his opinion, as most of the things he’s told about the cars and their potential performances after launches/testing has been proven to be wrong in the past.

However, there is a sentence from him I agree with: “ Hopefully, I will be proved wrong – and that’s something that has happened on many occasions!”

A little different angle:

[Pandamasque]

To me its ominous. I can't remember a radical design becoming successful since I've been watching F1.

We only remember them as "radical designs" when they're unsuccessful or banned before they become mainstream. But think of radical things like bargeboards, raised noses, cascade front wing elements, undercut or downwash sidepods, rear pullrods, lower front suspension arms that don't mount onto a keel (remember keels?) etc.
Pretty much all 2022 cars so far have bluff sidepod faces. That'd quite radical in 2021, but is already a trend.

My only question is what happens when it rains? With those kind of sidepods.

They get wet. Just like everything else. Although if it rains hard enough for the race to be red flagged, we may observe some lovely waterfalls at the back of Ferraris!

Waiting for dissertations from the idealist purists that copying is against the spirit of F1.

It has never been against the spirit, but as of 2021 it's somehow against the rules, as if nobody does that like all of the time.
