The point is that it´s one of his traits to incorporate this particular left right high speed corner.
Lots of track go left and right but that´s not what i´m saying.

Directly to the rear of a submarine the wake of the propeller (or baffles) renders the sonar ineffective. US subs (super quiet as they already are) hide in this baffle area fairly close to the target submarine.
A "Crazy Ivan" is to make a hard 180 degree turn to not only check your six, but to get a firing solution if there is a sub behind. The "crazy" part is that the following sub would usually have to shut down engines to avoid detection, but momentum could easily just carry them into the back of the target.
In driving terms (thinly-connected!) it would be like a car wanting to check for a tailing car by doing a handbrake turn at the end of a straight. Crazy.
Uhhh, right, that's why China's hairpin turns right, and CotA's turns left?RB7ate9 wrote:(Last time OT, I swear)

Adrian Newey: "Mexico's south of the US."
CH: "What difference does that make?"
AN: "His main straight hairpin will turn to the right."
CH: "Because his last track had one to the left?"
AN: "Because he makes his hairpin turns at the end of the straights turn to the right in the Western Hemisphere."

Alright, back On Topic.
Sauber on the podium. They'll bust out the DRD to make the best gains with their slim sidepods.
Ok, change it to "turns to the left in the Americas". I'm not picky.beelsebob wrote: Uhhh, right, that's why China's hairpin turns right, and CotA's turns left?
