Ferrari F14T

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.

Does anyone know how these winglets are allowed? That they're black suggests perhaps Ferrari calls them something other than "winglets" in order to justify their legality.

Anyone?

Which rule do you think disallows them?

The rules don't generally name parts, and then make up rules for those parts, instead, they specify bounding boxes that you can do stuff in. I'd bet that this simply exists in the bounding box for the air box, and that's it.

I don't understand, what's the point in comparing exhaust on two total different PU ? Comparing Ferrari and Sauber exhaust can have some sense but is quite obvious that 2 car with different PU have different exhaust layout, or i'm missing something ?

I have no idea. That's why I asked.

But, teams frequently call things by different names in order to justify their legality, because the regulations tend to to apply more restrictions to "bodywork" than to anything else. Think of every car's elaborate "brake ducts" as just one example.

I wonder why other teams haven't thrown winglets on their airboxes. It's free downforce. Though it appears in this case to be more about directing air down over the engine cover to provide cooling flow for its various cooling inlets. EDIT: The lack of end plates could also cause it to throw vortical flow onto the rear wing. But, I dunno, because my Bio-CFD is on the fritz.

imo, redbull has very different design philosophy .....just look at their radiator position (&shape) and the 'silver box' behind it .....they are put above sidepod duct, it may related to CoG, and the cooling air flow....that's why they never change the rear cooling hole, shape & position

Lotus, ferrari (and other teams?) has conventional layout for radiator (it is near-vertically mounted)...that why so many pics show their exhaust is placed right behind radiator ....but not rb10

Is it just me or the front wheel hub seems less "refined" compared to the ones of the other teams?
