If the aesthetics of F1 were truly irrelevant, I think the cars would probably have fenders by now. That they don't have fenders is the result of a largely aesthetic decision by the rule-makers to disregard the ginormous drag penalty associated with exposed wheels in order for the cars to more or less maintain F1's "traditional" appearance.gilgen wrote:Some of the fastest planes in the world, are downright ugly, but that does not mean they are any the worse for it. Sometimes you have to be brutal with airflow, to gain the best advantage. Look at Marussia, cleanest lines, but slowest car!

I'd say the difference between these examples and RBR is more likely the depth of the team owner's pockets than lack of chassis abuse.ESPImperium wrote:Jenson and Fernando have both done a championship with a single chassis (R26-03 & BGP001-02)

The first column is the name of the country, the second one is the lenght of the track, then it's the average speed, then max speed, then it's the % of the lap at full throttle, then the fuel consumption on one lap then the average consumption (L per 100KM ).
At Melbourne, RS27 engines consumn 2.5 litres of fuel on one lap and 67 after 100 KM.

Isnt the left one pointing on the fat bit on the back of the car that presumbaly is the duct that gets air from the big hole above the driver, prob split into two, as in one on each side.gandharva wrote:http://www.abload.de/img/bfuvvaicyaagmpq.jpglau5k86.jpgGridlock wrote: Edit: scarbs just tweeted "RB9 designed to run passive DRD" and identifies 2 ducts:

The left arrow points to *uhm* nothing?!
The right arrow points to a duct that has been there since day 1 Jerez.
It also seems much better organised, you can observe what is what very well. Almost placed together like legos, instead of trying to cramp everything in there what other teams seem to do.dren wrote:Tight packaging under the sidepods.
