There's no need to be so tetchy about it how about a picture of the part you think it is then?Mchamilton wrote:i think its about time everybody shut up about this stupid reflection, anybody who cant see that the black circle is of the side pod intake (you can see clearly the red of the vodafone branding behind it, and you an see clearly also the lower suspension arm reflecting perfectly on the pylon too. the is simply is no f*ing hole. the talk of the direction of light has nothing to do with it, its about the a angle of the camera to the bodywork and it lines up very nicely with what i, and several other people with eyes have pointed out.
there is no need for a picture, look at the pictures on the post above mine, and read my description, if you use your eyes properly you should realise that is a reflection of those partsianwit wrote:There's no need to be so tetchy about it how about a picture of the part you think it is then?Mchamilton wrote:i think its about time everybody shut up about this stupid reflection, anybody who cant see that the black circle is of the side pod intake (you can see clearly the red of the vodafone branding behind it, and you an see clearly also the lower suspension arm reflecting perfectly on the pylon too. the is simply is no f*ing hole. the talk of the direction of light has nothing to do with it, its about the a angle of the camera to the bodywork and it lines up very nicely with what i, and several other people with eyes have pointed out.
All teams will play around with the floor shape around the rear wheel. I'm don't really understand your post though.KevinR34 wrote:I Think all the teams copied this for Melbourne. It like a new blown diffuser concept?

My English is not so very good, but in do my best. That hole create gasses under the car for more downforce. It is a blown diffuser but a another version i think?Owen.C93 wrote:All teams will play around with the floor shape around the rear wheel.

Nothing that all teams haven't been doing for quite a few years . RBR had an interchangeable section and trialed a few different shapes and McLaren also had modifiable floor cutouts near the rear wheel.KevinR34 wrote:My English is not so very good, but in do my best.

those cut outs in the floor were there last year, that is where the exhausts exited, that is most likely the place where they're aiming the gases this year too, i'd imagen the cut out creates a nice vortice to seal the diffuser betterKevinR34 wrote:I Think all the teams copied this for Melbourne.

The sides of the pylon are convex, thus causing the reflection to be minimised. But as the previous poster says, why does it matter?ianwit wrote:We must be talking at cross purposes, the side pod intakes are large and rectangular they can't be reflected as a small round circle on a fairly flat plane imho.
Where are Martin's words?Rikhart wrote:Martin Whitmarsh first speculated that a passive F-duct could provide as much as 5-7kph extra straight-line speed, as well as creating further downforce.
