Scuderia Ferrari SF16-H

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

I guess this is moderate rake by the current standards.

I think it's RAI helmet on the pictures.. but I think both drove (promotional footage).
Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

Interestingly there is only pics of kimis helmet but I'd assume both would have driven.

In the picture of the "Changes at the front" paragraph SF-15T and SF-16H names should be inverted

Looks lovely. No more cooling grills on sides of the cockpit.

What could be the reason for them to dump the combined lower wishbone at the front? Weight?

Merc and RB also use push rod front suspension and run a combined lower wishbone. I get that Ferrari switched from pull rod, but for some reason they chose to abandon the idea. Aerodynamically it should be better to run a combined wishbone.
