Ferrari F2012

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Luca is a stones throw away in Barcelona, so they are under the pump.

New front suspension tweaks, new front wing, new floor, new exhaust, new rear wing extension and brand new rear diffuser/brake work!
If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

The car seems to have improved in the last sector, where the track has more need of traction.

Perhaps the new diffuser/beam wing/exhausts are giving better aero COG.
