what is a "white" layer on the rear brake cover for? looks like metal
It’s a ceramic coating. Reflects heat to the rim.
More likely keeping brake heat away from the wheel
Hadn't noticed it before, but their DRS actuator is similar to Ferrari's this year (integral swan's neck), and it was there in testing as well. Interesting parallel. Last year they both introduced shrouded mirrors at the same time as well, correct?ScrewCaptain27 wrote: ↑14 Mar 2019, 09:36New rear wing:

The DRS actuator design was already there on the STR13 RW. Ferrari used a different DRS actuator design last year. The vented mirror housing was introduced mid-season (british gp IIRC), Ferrari already had them available at the start of the last season.roon wrote: ↑22 Mar 2019, 05:13Hadn't noticed it before, but their DRS actuator is similar to Ferrari's this year (integral swan's neck), and it was there in testing as well.

It seems that Toro Rosso is still using AppTech wheels.
