Williams FW35 Renault

[Sevach]

I don't avow to understand aerodynamics, but the intake under the ramp seems very small compared to the amount of free space there was at the rear of the car before the ramp. The ramp takes up a large footprint in front of the rear wheels on the FW35! Also the ramp intake exit next to the gearbox fattens the famously slim rear end.

Hope it works!

They have a small hole for big exit area, i think the air should expand nicely, without choking.

Williams FW35 - Front Wing detail, notice how the endplate severs contact at the rear to allow air to move inside

Is there a slit on the top of the sidepods now? Look below the mirrors.

Been there since the launch, I mentioned it at the time, this is the first time in ages it's been opened up though It's like the hole McLaren used to run on their Sidepods

I remember the Mclaren one, 2010 or so.

It's so forward, does it even go through the radiator?

McLaren ran it until they went to the Sidepod WIngs last year, some races it was there others it was absent, it is forward on the rad.

It almost looks like they're exiting the sidepod tunnels near the crash structure

That's interesting...

The IRBR uses the tunnel to blow the starter hole, perhaps Williams is using the tunnel to blow the bottom of the beam wing for greater Down force effect.

You sure the IRBR is blowing the starter hole? the latest picture i seen you could see the starter hole

Not directly. They exit around and below the gearbox.

Strange nose.

It is probably just for transport.
