In 2013 pre-season testing McLaren installed some suspension parts upside down, which gave the car incredible pace due to the car being too low.
Then when they put the suspension parts on the right way, the car was slow.

Fast forward to 2017, and everyone has been blaming Honda for the engine being shit, but what if McLaren has been installing the engine upside down?

If Lewis is the greatest driver in the history of F1, and Nico was utter fucking shit because he was one tenth slower in qualifying, then two tenths slower must mean Bottas is the worst driver F1 has ever seen.

>Verstappen's final-sector time on super-softs was a tenth or so quicker than Raikkonen's. Now it's possible it was quicker on merit – he had softer tyres on after all. But he wasn't quicker in the other two sectors, so did Raikkonen hold back in the final sector like Vettel did yesterday?

I don't want to believe so I can't be disappointed but that's becoming increasingly harder now.

Groan.
I have a bit of a theory about the Finnish circlejerk in F1. And I actually blame Newey.
Newey built a dominant McLaren for 98 and 99 which gave Mika Hakkinen, a driver never in the same league as Schumacher, two titles. Mika then used his influence to talk Ron Dennis into promoting Raikkonen into the Newey rocketships when he retired. Hakkinen has now gotten Bottas promoted too.
None of the above as good as their reputation imo, and it all started with Newey and Hakkinen. Without that 98 McLaren we may never have had the constant Finnish-jerk.

Last year in qualy, Hamilton put up a 1.22.000. Assuming the driver not taking this as serious as qualy that would be about +1 sec so if the cars ran full speed it should be around 1.18.000.

Try shoveling more than a foot of snow 2-3 times per week. And the snow in that area is the heavy wet stuff, not nice light powder.

I hope the other teams block McLelren Hondshit from starting at Melbourne.

It's only reasonable due to safety reasons.
Causing red flags and safety cars is pretty much a given, it will endanger the Marshalls, it would stop other teams from training or even turn the positions upside down.

They are worse than Marussia, Minardi or any backmarkers there have been in last decades.

When Lauda threw "two tenths" out there I was kinda worried, but now that I think about it that may be all Bottas needs for the time being.

Realistically I don't expect him winning the WDC or even putting up much more of a challenge than Rosberg did in 2014 and 2015 against Lewis.

However I am hopeful that 2/10ths is enough for 2nd place on the grid, which is all he needs to turn Lewis' inevitable shit starts into potential wins. We've seen time and time again that the Mercedes can bog down on the start, so maybe Bottas can capitalize on a few opportunities and start to build his confidence for a real title fight once he is fully acquainted.
>>
Yes, Brazil is right.

Where is the FIA when you need them?

Being able to do only 11 consecutive laps throughout the whole testing should be proof enough that the car is a danger for the other drivers and the working personal around the circuit.

The rear jack has a quick release that drops the car.
Question is, did the jack fail, or did the dumbfuck accidentally pull the release lever.

Well he immediately went for a new jack, so maybe it broke? Could also be a standard procedure to always go for a new jack because the jack would need to be prepared somehow.

>Failed, seeing as the backup jack got used

I see your point, but that depends how long it takes to reset the quick release jack.


>>74604446
Agree

>>74604517
the quick release is hydraulic, isn't it? So it would be more or less instantaneous?

I think so, so you're probably right.

Still, it is Toro Rosso though, so it could be a system of zip ties and rubber bands.

>2. These cars now break so late that all the overtaking will have to be done mid-straight under DRS

Was thinking about this yesterday.

Most people think Red Bull is yet to add a million aero pieces to their car, but a few tech types have suggested it's a low-drag concept.

The low drag would make a lot of sense, considering the braking zones are tiny, and you can't follow closely in corners now due to the aero (Massa couldn't get past a Sauber that was 1.5sec a lap slower).

Wouldn't surprise me if the Red Bull is solely designed to pass on the straights, and just keep up the best it can in corners, because that will be the only way to pass in 2017.

(It's also going to make starts super important, and the undercut super powerful)

>>74604802
The traditional Red Bull strategy is to build a super fast car on one lap and then crusie to the win from pole. No need to overtake if you have the fastest car.

A low drag concept wouldn't make much sense.
>>
>>74604836

Probably Massa
>can manage one quick lap in qually
>too fucking old and decrepit to do it for an entire rac
>>74604871
You actually may have a point.

If the Red Bull is slow in the corners, it's going to hold everybody up.
Combine that with fast in a straight line, and no one will get past it.
>>
>>74604906
It does if you know you don't have the fastest car. Red Bull are going with low drag so they can keep up with the Mercs on the straights, hope to overtake in the braking zones and try to keep them behind in the corners

Would Kimi winning the title this year be like if Irvine won the title in 1999 and became The One instead of Schumi? Vettel and Alonso both tried, but couldn't do it and now Kimi might take their glory.

I mean Kimi and Irvine are both drunken #2 drivers.

Yes it's an okay strategy if you car turns out to be a turd (like McLaren last year) and you want to 'save' it somewhat late in the development process. But I had the impression Australiafag here was implying they had developed their car with a low-drag concept in mind, which would be stupid.

Nah, drag on straight means little for top speed. You still get the majority of speed from engine. But passing will definately be harder now. Cars are wider, faster, the quicker the cars is, the harder it's to pass. And then there's also dirty air from the one that you're trying to pass. F1's are too complex aerowise now, so instead of sleapstreaming air behind opponent is bad for you, and it's gotten even worse in that aspect in from first reports. I'd expect less natural passing, but drs zones can be adjusted on most tracks, so faster cars will still have plenty of chances.

Drag does make a difference, but the vmax losses are cancelled out not by engine power increase, but because the higher downforce means the corner exit speeds are higher, so the cars don't have to accelerate as much to reach the same speed.
