I think I see it, too. But I still don't know it's function. Hope it will be raced this year. I'm really curious.

I'll agree the column is different, the sharks mouth I think we just can't see cause of the gentleman standing behind blocking the light and the Camera isn't mounted anywhere on that wing so it's just not mounted yet.

Code: Select all

I think this diosfenix post from [color=#FF0000][b][i][u]Montreal [/u][/i][/b][/color] would be an interesting comparison to Monza, as I'm hoping they've learned from Montreal and will have improved.

My idea (i may be wrong) is that ferrari uses the nose with the air intake at high downforce circuits - because the slot influences the flow for the pylon and front turning vane system. If this was tryue, thea would me that the nose with the slot is a Sinagpore spec brought here for constant speed test on the straight. We will see

The slot is to lead air into the cockpit for driver cooling and also to prevent extreme low pressure zones behind the windshield/steering wheel.

Ted thinks Ferrari will use new LOW DRAG rear wing for the rest of the weekend. Happy to hear that new parts are working good.

[el-Magico]

Slots are back in the rear wing endplate, or were they also back at SPA?

They say, if it looks fast it normally is fast..
This Ferrari looks fast..

And no vertical vanes on the trailing edges of the endplates for the low-drag rear wing.

Is that a new diffuser?
