the differences between the version of the morning and afternoon



Budapest 27 luglio 2013 – Siamo i primi a mostrarvi alcune differenze tra il nuovo fondo della Ferrari, provato venerdi mattina sulla vettura di Massa, e quello vecchio ma ancora utilizzato sulla F138.

Oltre infatti alle differenze sul piano del fondo tra gomma e diffusore erano presenti sulla Ferrari anche delle altre importantissime modifiche sugli scarichi dei gas motore non rilevate da nessuno.

Osservando attentamente la zona posteriore della vettura infatti si può notare come il pozzetto di scrico motore nella versione in basso di venerdi mattina, sia più inclinato verso il basso, più profondo il taglio nella carrozzeria. Mentre nella versione in alto del pomeriggio è stata ripristinata la versione standard con l’applicazione di una placchetta rettangolare evidenziata dal nostro cerchio giallo.

Questo indica come ancora una volta in casa Ferrari si cerchi di migliorare la questa zona di fondamentale importanza nel funzionamento della vettura e del carico al posteriore.

Inoltre segnaliamo anche la presenza di un “profilo” verticale nella zona del deflusso dell’aria calda proveniente dai radiatori, mantenuto sia al mattino che la pomeriggio.

Infine le due paratie sul fondo, nella zona interna alla gomma posteriore, che formano una canalizzazione ma che nel pomeriggio è tornat ad essere presente solo quella più esterna (tra l’altro leggermente modificata) senza quindi la canalizzazione in stile Red Bull e Toro Rosso.

You can see that "flap" on top of the cooling exit on this picture as well...weird.

New exhaust channel on the floor ???

This is the sidepod configuration used in china right? The slightly bulbous one?

Yes it seems to be the same as China. For clarification, that wasn't was I was referring to though.

Right, I see what you mean. I think the closed off hole is an illusion, there's still a hole thoughthe edges have grown some 'wings'. Kind of if you were looking into the inside of a fedora.

Interesting that it's rather hot this weekend, yet Ferrari close off the exit for engine cooling.

Yes really interesting... i suspect that they discovered a problem with the extraction of hot air, and they found a solution with the nolder, so now the car need less air intake in the car.

nope, just for more cooling.

Apparently, the updates to the F138 are not all they could have been. Alonso expressed concern over the effect a loss in Hungary would have on the team. Well, 5th and 7th on the grid is not a very auspicious start to the weekend. Yes, it's a long race, but Vettel on the front row is not cause for optimism among us tifosi.

Spanish press are reporting that for this race Ferrari had completely new rear wing, new floor, new diffusser, new exhauts and new engine cover, Also Alonso said they were not expecting this upgrades to work straight away but they are really happy and with hopes that will work by the end of summer after some improvements

what? they closed all the cooling vents to have more cooling? Or the function of the nolder is to have more cooling?

The gurney flap enhances low pressure behind the exit which encourages hot air to flow out of it, so it does enhance cooling

OK thanks it's the same thing i wrote before, but I have not been so clear. =D>

Does anybody have any idea what could that round metal object be, just before the OZ sign?
