This wing doesn't have enough "turn" on the upper flaps.
If you notice that, I'm sure Ferrari has too, and tried it out. They ran a more agressive "turn out" in 2010-11, so I'm sure they know what they're doing. With a Merc engine, this chassis would win multiple races.n smikle wrote:This wing doesn't have enough "turn" on the upper flaps.

I'd doubt that. It's not only the engine that makes the difference, as evident in Canada.Pierce89 wrote:If you notice that, I'm sure Ferrari has too, and tried it out.

So no debris gets in the turbo. The pipe is quite short.George-Jung wrote:Why do they put this yellow thing in front of the exhaust exit?
Not talking about the end plates, good Sir. I was speaking of the front upper flaps. If you look on the Mclaren, Mercedes, Lotus and Force India the front upper flaps and the inboard vertical turning vane are shaped to work together to side-wash the air going over the outboard, upper shoulders of the tyre. This is not something that was commonly done before. Only Lotus did this concept in 2012 until about 2013 when other teams adopted the concept. Ferrari's upper front wing flaps are only midly turned outward and seem to not redirect the air outward as much.Pierce89 wrote:If you notice that, I'm sure Ferrari has too, and tried it out.
