Scooter Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Here's a picture of the new possible wing design for the new aero package for 2007/2008. I don't think it can get any uglier. The idea is to get less turbulent airflow behind the car to promote passing. http://www.fia.com/resources/images/178225...CDG_graphic.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putty Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hmmm, I think it looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outerlimits Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 the only way they are gonna promote passing is to give every team but ferrari a 10 lap head start. seriously, i could care less about passing in F1-i watch it to see technology and the few remaining classic tracks set in the countryside. i abhor the new sterile tracks and head to the range on those sundays. gimme the old hockenheim, spa, monza and imola. otoh, i think the split wing looks kinda cool-the wind tunnel graphic proves the effect, but i suspect a lack of downforce will only last till the engineers play with it.

Scooter Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 You're forgetting Ferrari was glad the season was finally over. Ferrari wasn't used to having everyone passing them. Wish they would bring back the old Nurburgring, 14 miles lap, 100+ corners. Here's the CFD of the new wing design. http://www.fia.com/resources/images/130637...low_graphic.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulm540 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 With a little luck on their side, I think Mclaren will kick everybody's A$$ next year. Ahh the V 8s would be ineresting next year, revving at 20,000+ RPM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
