From the article from Franco Nugnes, who often isn't reliable:
.

The achievement of certain duration targets also leads to the introduction of a modification in the hybrid system:
the new MGU-K should make its debut in Miami, while the ECU and battery will certainly arrive before the homologation limit set by the FIA ​​for the month of September.

This is not true. All the three components will be introduced as late as possible, before September 1st.

That seems to be the implication. Though I'm a tad doubtful of these claim. How would they even assess reliability accurately if they don't run it at full power?

It seems to me that if you run the engine at 95% and it breaks after a few races then it becomes easy to say that the engine requires some adjustments to be able to run at full power with an acceptable reliability in a 22 race season.

On the other hand, if there are no issues, it still means little.

If there are no issues then there is no basis to claim a reliability update is there? Then you run at 100% and see if that breaks anything.

Seems like Ferrari is planning to test super low drag Monza version of FW. Otherwise not any striking changes to FW, looks similar to previous one

I'm reasonably sure they haven't mounted the part yet in the bottom one...

Sure, exactly. The while mid section is missing. It was just a joke from my side.

If that is true, that is seriously impressive. Given where Ferrari were last year in terms of PU output, for them to not only match the PU leaders at such a mature stage of PU development but to have 20bhp over Merc when there's not much left to squeeze out of PU and in such a short space of time is nothing short of amazing.

[Vanja #66]

Yeah... that would make RB18 reach 350, while others couldn't reach 320kmh...

Yeah... that would make RB18 reach 350, while others couldn't reach 320kmh...

I challenged the legitimacy of this type of analysis on previous pages in the Merc thread but people defended it for whatever reason.

They changed to a completely different fuel. E10 development wasn't "mature".

The difference Mercedes/Ferrari is reasonable. Red Bull results are definitely not.

The same methodology is used....Just because something looks reasonable, doesn't mean it's reality. That's just confirmation bias. The RB result shows the method doesn't show the whole picture. The similarity of Merc/Ferrari could be a complete coincidence and they are no more valid than the RB result.

Hi! I too have I doubt about the RB drag coefficient that I wrote in the analysis - I will check tomorrow, I could have calculated the ratio giving the relative drag of the RB compared to the other cars using a wrong value, relative to a previous calculation. This is a doubt I had even before reading your comment. I hope you’ll enjoy the sincerity

In case I will follow up with a corrective post, as it is merely a typo - thank you for sharing it btw!!
