How is Adrian Newey taking the #AstonMartin #AMR26 to extremes? 👀 Upper wishbone, similar to the #RedBull RB15 (multi-link) ----> greater tyre footprint ----> better grip #f1 #f1testing

With photos of @n_mode_log we can see in the first picture the active aerodynamics actuator of the FW. In the second photo, we can instead what could be the actuator continuum or the system for regulating the incidence of the flap #f1 #japanesegp #f1jp #redbull

Suzuka is awkward for energy management: recharge in the Esses due to traction limits, recharge at Spoon is nearly essential, and even with higher top speed before 130R, the car seems slower in the corner because of closed wings and MGU-K clipping. Full race lap results below 👇

#Mercedes W17 - 4th element - It is the result of an excellent interpretation of the technical regulation, increasing the volume generally permitted ** - Allows blowing >> delays flow detachment >> drag reduction #f1 #f1tech

These are my first illustrations, coincidentally they are all about #Mercedes 😅. What do you think? I remind you that I did a little analysis on the "tyre squirt" slots 👇 open.substack.com/pub/formulapad… #f1

@MercedesAMGF1BR Are there any videos where the aerodynamics elements are actived?

Here's the full Alpine rear end. Did you know... the gold input shaft going into the gearbox includes a @FIA torque sensor, so they know how powerful each engine is! #F1 #F1tech #F1JP

Here is a comparison between the two top teams: it is clear that the Mercedes is much less sensitive to the pitch; I get the impression that the Mercedes needs two braking phases to activate this mechanism, The Ferrari, however, uses the entire wing to reduce pitch

Could we revise a scenario similar to that of the Chinesegp? A Red Bull struggling with graining and a Mercedes struggling with hard ones that needs more time to put them up for temperature?

Unleashing the Beast this weekend in Suzuka 😤

Do you often drive #F1 cars upside down in tunnels? If so, bad news: in 2026, you’ll need +11.7 km/h for the car’s downforce (upforce?) to match its weight! 💡 2026 cars are 20kg lighter (-2.5%) than 2025s, but have ~13% less downforce. The latter prevails: the speed needed to equate its weight increased from 199.7 km/h to 211.4 km/h → slower in high-speed corners, lower g-forces 📉 In reality, 211.4 km/h would only let you drive upside down very briefly: at that speed, downforce=weight →No normal force and thus traction! Drag would slow the car down → downforce drops → you fall! 💥 In order not to fall, you would need enough downforce to produce enough rear longitudinal force to overcome drag (CFD analysis via @Air_Shaper)

@ScarbsTech Will you do an analysis about it?
