aluminumonkey posted:So when they find out red bull is cheating, what part of the car is it going to be? Fuel system, moveable aero on the floor.... Using unlimited CFD and wind tunnel time but claiming it’s for cooling related purposes. Hang on, I’ve just been handed a note: “That is totally allowed and ReBull pinky swore so we trust them - The FIA”

Engineers being told no extra cfd time is like me telling you nerds not to pirate video games

are "aeroelastic" components still against the rules? (i don't see how since every team has a front wing designed to change angle of attack under load) anyway i could see red bull doing some cheat-ish stuff around coupling the aero and suspension systems together. skirting the lines of active aero? anything aero or similar would have to be something hard to see if no one's made a big deal about it this far into the season either that or yeah cheating on cfd/tunnel time Or maybe they just told max to hold the throttle pedal down more often

Red Bull are going to put a £3m line item on their accounts for toilet paper and it turns out the factory has been wiping with carbon fibre sheets all year

the milk machine posted:are "aeroelastic" components still against the rules? (i don't see how since every team has a front wing designed to change angle of attack under load) Wings can flex X millimeters at Y point, so every competent team has wings that flex exactly X at Y. The testing methodology changed from having a lad stand on it in the pits to measure deflection with 100kg on it to the scrutineering team actually inspecting nose cam footage to see what happens under real world aero load with the car moving around (which is how everybody except the FIA was able to tell stuff was moving further than it should to begin with), sometimes you see cars with little marker stickers on the nose which they use as reference points for this.

smackfu posted:It’s pretty obvious when a wind tunnel is running and you can just have a webcam pointing at it? Is it running over 5m/s? 15m/s? How long was it stopped for? Did you turn the fan on too quickly? Off too quickly? Did you change the bodywork at the wrong time? Do you have active systems for adjusting bodywork whilst the fan is running? Did you run over midnight? Etc etc etc You'll get picked up on an audit if you do anything daft.

Rinkles posted:I don’t understand how any of those limits are enforceable when teams own the facilities. Totally not the issue. It's the grey area around resource allocation KTM went from being actively opposed to aero in MotoGP, having terrible/barely any aero on the bike to this year magically they jumped to having the one of the most sophisticated aero on the grid. Coincidentally it's an Austrian company sponsored by Red Bull. If you have a team that rotates between working on MotoGP aerodynamics half the time and then F1 the other half is it really fair that only 50% of the salary counts towards the budget cap? They're still working on aerodynamic concepts they can apply to the F1 car in the time they're not on the F1 project.
