Pfff, that's not the whole "system", it's just some removable winglet

@bucker you made it sound more serious that it actually is

FIA wants to ban new Williams exhaust system. Charlie Whiting says it's against the rules.

Can you post a link to the story?

Williams' exhaust is legal, but Charlie wants to illegalize it as to prevent teams from building tunnels. Thats my view at least

That panel atleast helps. I dearly hope Charley Whiting creates a TD forcing Williams to homologate it.

Waterpipe.

I was pointing on the finpanel that was added on the airbox, which masked the euhm nothingness at the back. All joking aside, I hope they run that at every race.

The fin was deleted by photoshop...it has to be there by order of the regulations.

It was deleted in photoshop to demonstrate how tiny the FW35 back end is.

Then I apperently made a fool out of myself. My bad!

Seriously i dont hope Whiting will get a complete fuzz on about som small winglets behind the exhaust. If their within the rules please dont change the rules just to outlaw them. Theres only one year left with current regulations so it seems so pointless to outlaw it. But then again most of FIA regulations is pointless.

[axle]

I think they'll clarify the rules and outlaw it - but this isn't all bad. It may be that Williams did it to force clarification before the start of the season.

just like i didn't like ferrari's original annular around the exhausts sidepod exits last year in testing, i'm not sure i like that truncated coke bottle/waist shape with the sidepod exhaust in its middle.

it looks like they are depending on the sidepod exit air to keep that otherwise bluff shape from separating. they have to get this right, or they'll end up with drag and separated flow back there. a normal narrow coke bottle waist all the way to the back like everybody else would obvioulsy be more conservative. it will be fascinating to see how this works out.....
