And it might have pulled the basis from under how Redbull developed their car. They sacrificed suspension flexibility to be able to run lower and now you can suddenly have downforce in the corners again with very little drag on the straights with the FW flex.Dee wrote: ↑28 Jun 2024, 15:21Its the new wings that are doing it, isn't it?
FIA have decided that the flex that is happening now isn't an issue, even though in previous years they have acted on that stuff immediately.
New wings give balance to Mclaren, Ferrari, Mercedes and hence the massive leap in performance.
on German Sky they did a pre-session interview today, where he said the same as in his other interviews during the week (sprint weekend difficult, McLaren strong, Ricciardo crap).
Now I see that he was behind an Alpine, the gap was close whole lap so he must've lost the time from there
Probably they did. Since Max also had a suboptimal final lap. Probably another half a tenth in it.
