is this something that Formula one teams can integrate? I know literally nothing about suspension so please feel free to explain if they can/cannot.
It sounds like it has a lot of advantages over a standard sprung system.
It sounds like that because it's a marketing video trying to tell you on their cars.
Really pretty basic. It's a ride damper. Nothing fancy about it. Could very well be there just to try to handle wheel hop - just my speculation. Seems odd to go add another component to the car when you could do other things. But hey, maybe it was the easiest or most practical solution, hard to know without knowing where they were at in design.
Any sort of video like this though you have to take with a grain of salt. They can take a crutch / bandaid for a problem and try to spin it into some fancy marketing thing. The fact that they "brand" it as 'Triplex' I think speaks to that.
Grip is a four letter word. All opinions are my own and not those of current or previous employers.
