Williams FW32 Cosworth

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 bet Patrick has a big smile on his face at the moment.

Err no the chassis isnt outdated. It is the only 2010 chassis running at Goodwood. Sure there is a very significant aero upgrade for silverstone but the chassis will still be the same.

As soon a you post a picture of a modern F1 car it is pretty much outdated with the relentless development!

A pic from Claires twitter, this is the latest version of the car probably, with a blown diffuzer (not visible, but notice the temperature stickers on lower suspension arm). Also note that the second air intake above the drivers head is missing.

makes the rear look much tighter, may an illusion from the pic

there seems to be a bulge in the sidepod - again maybe the pic but can that be aerodynamic?

Slits in the rear wing endplates were modified. There are 6 narrow straight ones instead of previous 3 curvy ones.

"We're into that but we haven't done it at Silverstone. We're trying it with Cosworth on the dyno but haven't got anything signed off for now. Judging by their pace you'd probably say that Red Bull are the only ones doing it at the moment, although Renault is using the same engine so they've probably got something signed off too.
Hey......
