Sorry for ask but do you have and old photo of the brake, so we can see the difference? ThanksTechF1 wrote:The new rear brake basket duct...George-Jung wrote:Please help me get up to speed, what is so interesting about the pic?
I know this was pointed out in another post but it is worth further clarification. The distance of any mass from the COG is only relevant to Moment of Inertia (MOI) calculations and the contribution of each mass is proportional to that distance squared. The total MOI value is sometimes referred to as "Roll Moment of Inertia" - not to be confused with "Roll Moment" see below. RMOI is "the tendency of the car to maintain its rotational speed about the roll axis" or if you prefer "the tendency to resist angular acceleration about the roll axis"johnsonwax wrote:I suspect that it comes out worse. The turbo is being lowered but is closer to the center of mass. The influence of mass is proportionate to the square of the distance, and the added mass of the water intercooler is quite high up. On paper it probably looked a little slower in the corners but higher enough power/more aero to compensate. Unfortunately against the Mercedes, it's neither yet, though they might do well against RB on the high speed tracks.Bob Brown wrote:But the lower turbo lowers the center of mass, and frees up sidepods area.
NO. As you can see in this pic turbo and compressor are splitted too but less than on the merc PU.

Look at the difference in size of the central cooling outlet.

I may be wrong, I have seen the small engine cover on Friday used both in Spain and in Monte Carlo and then they used the big engine cover in the race and qualifications also in Spain and Monte CarloMcMrocks wrote:But doesn't the picture claim it was taken in Qualification?nismo wrote:FP2 was rain.f1316 wrote:How can the image of the Ferrari in the rain be the Monaco race or Qualifying?
But we believe the Author that Ferrari used the exactly same engine cover at both GP's.
IMO they simply choose the enigne cover(cooling exit) looking at the temperatures at each GP. No real developement and performance differnator
