CFD images from F1Technical - Check out the article here! www.f1technical.net/features/...
So finally, all cars are out on track and there is a lot to talk about, but we wanted to gather the most interesting bits that surprised us from the first two days of testing.
Cars jumping up and down on the straights, very different driving styles and even a first look at Red Bull’s clever beam wing that is giving us mad ‘double diffuser’ vibes.
Now there is a lot to talk about, so we’ve grabbed the bits that MOST surprised us from testing.
Let’s go.

If you setup laws to fully audit anyone purchasing or selling more than 1 million in art in a year it'd all magically go away.

Regarding the Masterworks add. The richest 0.01% that store some of their wealth in art don't do it because they want to profit from growing prices but because they can donate some artworks with fixed prices to museums to get tax deductions. It is only a good investment when you have high income taxes

@@Wuppie62 nope. Read my text again. It'e not about buying the piece alone. There is price fixing at big auction houses that has to be done which means that the "collectors" sometimes have to buy pieces for a way higher price than everyone else thought it was worth. This increases the value of all art pieces of that particular artist which means that the" collector" can donate an art peace to the museum for a price that is estimated and much higher than what he will have payed himself on the free market. To clarify. You buy something cheap. Artificialy inflate prices and then donate the piece toba museum whivh makes you eligable for a tax refund.

Anti Dive actually prevents dive under braking. Pro Dive creates more dive under braking. I use this on my asphalt modified so the theory given here is actually the opposite idea. Pro - accentuates dive (front a arm mount is lower than the rear). Pro dive will also cause more use of the springs instead of the geometry for compression Anti - reduces dive (front a arm mount is higher than the rear). Anti Dive allows you a softer front spring so the front geometry can account for some "spring rate".

@janne-mans8295 2 жыл бұрын

One may assume differential sensors that inform drivers about being within optimal parameters or not, thus helping adopt the drive style nearest to perfection on almost a realtime base. Similarly the sensor data may increase or decrease suspension rigidity mapping independently front and back for optimal balance, based on feedbacks, as a setup tool.

My guess is that the days shows it makes the car more efficient, but the variance in lap to lap time due to the driver and effects like tire degredation, fuel consumption, changing wind conditions and so on are at least of equal magnitude so it's difficult to see the effect. Or maybe it just doesn't work as anticipated, OR the driver extracts...let's say 99% of theoretical lap time and with the car damaged it's 99.06%. So the driver is closer to the limit without knowing.
