Ferrari 150° Italia

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.

agree, i thought that in testing, Ferrari was just playing with us going the conservative route but they turned up with pretty much the same car for the first race.

Obviously some things were changed but where is the innovation, the beauty that Ferrari´s always had.
I wish they would just knick the nosecone from the F10. That car looked like a red painted fighter jet. Such a good lookin F1 car..

I can´t stand the front end at all. Everything from the nosecone to the white pieces of --- they have to hold the front wing in place like you said.

Thank you for the pic, wonderful shot.

LOL, don't make me laugh!

Even if Ferrari find 1 second or so, the other teams aren't standing still. Even if they get back to their race winning ways, Red Bull aren't wasting time this year, they are running away with this championship...
LOML WTF does your post have to do with either one you quoted :? :lol:

LA NUOVA FERRARI 150°ITALIA VERSIONE B HA GIRATO QUESTA MATTINA A FIORANO

Questa mattina, a girato per una ripresa filmata pubblicitaria autorizzata dalla FIA, sulla pista di Fiorano la Ferrari modificata che disputerà il Gp della Turchia. . Si tratta della monoposto evoluzione che è chiamata a risollevare le sorti del Cavallino rampante dopo un avvio di campionato certamente non all’altezza delle aspettative.
Al volante c’era Felipe Massa per la verifica di una serie di importanti soluzioni tecniche che dovrebbero avvicinare le Rosse a Red Bull Racing e McLaren, le due squadre che hanno vinto i primi tre Gp della stagione 2011.
Analizzando le foto si nota subito un nuovo alettone anteriore studiato per risolvere la mancanza di carcico deportante all’avantreno senza penalizzare troppo l’efficienza, con le paratie laterali di nuovo disegno e i flap rivisti. Le novità più importanti riguardano la zona degli scarichi che sono ancor più incanalati verso la tangente della ruota posteriore seguendo un concetto che è stato brillantemente sviluppato da Adrian Newey sulla RB7. La Ferrari per esasperare questo concetto, dovrà ridisegnare la sospensione posteriore onde evitare che il puntone dello schema push-rod determini un nocivo bloccaggio dei gas roventi destinati invece ad infilarsi sotto al diffusore posteriore per creare una sorta di “minigonna termica” che permette di “sigillare” il fondo con l’assetto più “picchiato”, vale a dire con il retrotreno più alto da terra. A Maranello sono molto fiduciosi e credono che con quetso progetto la Ferrari diventerà mlto più competitiva. Se così non fosse
prepariamoci a possibili cambiamenti nella pianta organica dello staff tecnico. Oggi il nome più chiacchierato è quello di Nikolas Tombazis, il progettista che ha firmato la 150° Italia.

Thank you csponton.

It appears we have our first rake adjusted car, the F150th. To my eyes it looks ungainly, but if their figures add up and it actually forces that front wing lower, then who cares?
More could have been done.

Is it just me or does the front wheels look to close to the driver? :)
Should have moved them forward just a tiny bit for the esthetics's imo..

Mamamia lamborghini ravioli!!

English please. :)
This morning, shooting commercials for a shot cleared by the FIA, Ferrari at the Fiorano track changed the GP who will play in Turkey. . This is the car's evolution that is required to revive the fortunes of the Prancing Horse after a start of the season certainly did not expect.
Felipe Massa was at the wheel for the verification of a number of important technical solutions that would bring the Reds to Red Bull Racing and McLaren, the two teams that have won the first three Grand Prix of the 2011 season.
By analyzing the photos you will immediately notice a new front wing designed to address the lack of downforce at the front carcico without sacrificing too much efficiency, with the side walls of the new design and revised flap. The most important changes concern the area of ​​discharges that are more channeled to the tangent of the rear wheel following a concept that has been brilliantly designed by Adrian Newey on RB7. Ferrari for exaggerate this concept, it must redesign the rear suspension to prevent the strut of the push-rod would result in a harmful blockage of hot gases instead intended to get under the rear diffuser to create a "thermal short skirt" which allows " seal "the bottom with trim that is" nuts ", ie with the rear higher ground. At Maranello are very confident and believe that with the Ferrari project quetso mlto become more competitive. If not
prepare ourselves for possible changes in the organization chart of the technical staff. Today, the name most talked about is to Nikolas Tombazis, the engineer who signed the 150 ° Italy.
For Sure!!

You can only put the driver further away by moving the whole tub back relative to wheel center line, as the tub size is regulated. The splitter is exactly behind the rear wheel, 330mm from center line.
For Sure!!

All parts have been used previously (according to autosprint) - as testing of new parts is prohibited by the rules. They might have tried a modified setup (increased rear clearance hight)

Regarding the frontwing: I wonder:
Usual setup in 2011: 3 elements, of which the third element is bigger than the second. Ferraris third element, though, is smaller than the second....

Alsos looks like they will be bringing a new chassis to Turkey as they will have been able to do 100km with this and a TV day as well, giving them 150km total if im right. Meaning this could plausably be chassis 290, whitch will be given to Alonso as Massa was given 289 for the start of the season.

Whitch means chassis distances are as follows for the 150° Italia:

287: 3,789.170
288: 5,427.169
289: 2,334.650

Whitch should equal 11,550.989 for Ferrari to date.

Also the car has a Red Bull style dip in the middle of the rear wing now.

It was a joke.. I know form follows function in motorsport.
But the car would look better with a longer wheelbase if you lengthen it from the driver and forward. (imo)
