If F-duct intake is in such a place, will it be passive system? Am I right?

No, it will be active. Ferrari have confirmed it since China.

They didnt change their front wing...
I thought they tested a new one at Vaiorano and we could see it today...

And those mirrors reminds me of the F2003 GA...They could do something like Mercedes(BrawGP), putting the mirrors over the split air ( that "knife" near the cockpit, dont know how to name that thing..). They used them in the f2007 and f2008 cars.


My English is very rusty... im from Brazil so, sorry about any mistake...

You guys see that little tube In the picture? It seems to connect near the back of the airbox. Right where that guy's "trigger finger" is (left hand).

This is how I think the tubes are connected:

The control pipe could be passing through the foam thing around the driver?
Any regulations against hollowing out the foam?

Seriously have to ask the question why are the engines this year, which are intrinsically the same as last years, so unreliable?

This year the car carry 150kg on the start instead of 65kg. Yes you can say for the whole race it's almoust the same amount of fuel like last year, but it isn't the same due to the 3 phases of the race. And also hte load of engine during the race is differetn.

Last year they carry cca 1/3 65L - 2/3 45L - 3/3 30L
This year they carry cca 1/3 150L - 2/3 80L - 3/3 30L

I don't think it's the same load for the engine, so it need to work harder.
And if the engine was designed for meeting the requriments from last year and was bring to limit, then the ralibility problems are possible.

Last yers - It's like you ran Marathon and during the run you can refresh by fresh water on stops...
This year - It't like you ran marathon and you must carry all your refreshments with you from beginign to the end...

Is this the same for all the teams that use what is supposed to be the exact same Ferrari engine?

[JohnsonsEvilTwin]

Its the same for everyone else right?

This is how I think the tubes are connected:

Obvious realy, a pneumatic switch.
Looking at the layout, wing design and slot position it places Ferrari two places behind McLaren and at least one behind Merc.
ps Why does the Ferari pit always look like that garage in East Enders?

I don't expect them to use that bald head to redirect the air while on the track.

I don't expect them to use that bald head to redirect the air while on the track.

This could be to simulate the airstream around the drivers helmet!

That Dude on the left looks to be upset about somthing.

"Why does my bald head end up in Massa's car?"

[ElRebelde]

Looking at the shape of the sharkfin, I'd suggest something like this



But that assumes the duct behind the airbox really has anything to do with the rearwing
