All this stuff about is it fast or not its total speculation. None of use know how fast it will be. All we can really do is look at what they are doing and talk about the techinical side of the it (thus a technical forum).....
....Sorry to rant, I am just getting bored of this, Whole "is it fast or is it not stuff" cus we just dont have all the facts.
I agree. Let's all speculate on what they are testing and what it does because we certainly have all those facts, right? Not! Let's all speculate on what Sawtooth-spike wants to speculate on because he is bored with anything else.
Tune out if you are bored.
But it will also require special tests that do focus on low weight runs, do focus on 100% driving (tyre friction circle really), and do focus on soft tyres.vdemeter wrote:I have a theory for McLaren's slow testing pace. Could it be that they are getting data for their simulator? Let me explain. Since there is no testing in season they will try to use their simulator effectively to test the effect of new components. To be able to use the simulator they have to validate their simulation models and this requires special tests that not necessarily gives the fastest lap.

i know too early but...isn't this the exact same problem renault had from 2007?
wind tunnel figures not the same as real life testing?
