Ferrari F14T

I moved the aero calculations from here into the old Aerodynamics in F1 thread. Calculate away.

Ted on ferrari's mgu-k apparently outputting more than 120kw during quali:

Ted sure does speculate a lot. I don't believe Ferrari would be allowed to keep their grid spots if the mgu-k was over 120kw. It seems to me to be more likely to do with the rule that stipulates the max torque the mgu-k can use. I guess I'm saying Ferrari went over the torque limit but rpm was low enough to stay under the power limit.

"Moment when F14T is started"
"Smoke when is ignited....Fry doesn't seem to be convinced

Just burning excess oil, probably

Ted is assuming development is the only factor influencing the teams performances. Of course it isn't.

Barcelona Testing 2014 - Day 1 (13.05.2014)

Hey guys, can somebody more knowledgeable about the F14T point me to the timeframe in which this potential opening under the nose appeared?



Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot.

I think that this is a new feature on the car. I have never noticed it before and cannot find it in the photographs from the Spanish Grand Prix. It is most definetely for battery cooling, isn't it?

[Jaap]

I have to agree with Infy! The Spain track is a handling focused track, even with the long straight. And I guess stiffness was more important than drag reduction..

And I doubt the duct H2H found is for battery cooling, IMO it's placed to far forward and the element on which it's positioned looks to small, I think it's just driver cooling since the ferrari nose has no other solutions for this!

"adjust power"

said it all really.

he was not penalize as his car was not chosen to be scrutineer by the steward post quali. FIA only found out before the race start.

RAI is on track with sensors attached to the wheel with nut being open:

To you have a link ready? Thanks.

It seems propable that it is linked to testing, perhaps monitoring the airflow under the nose?
