2022年一級方程式巴林格蘭披治 Round 1

[BigMac]

有沒有哪位大大可以總解一下法拉利今年可以反彈這麼大的原因!?

[Sunday Morning]

@bigmac E10 Bio fuel are more suitable for Ferrari’s Engine and their porpoising are not as severe as Mercedes

[Sunday Morning]

@李奕忠 Ferrari’s Engine are much more faster than the Mercedes’ and the RedBull’s

[Sunday Morning]

@mika So true because it seems Mercedes can’t take care of their new engine and RB has the reliability issue

[Sunday Morning]

@李奕忠 I love Saudi Arabian!!! The fastest street race in the calendar

[Mika]

@sunday-morning Powerunit is of course one of the iseeue but it is not the only issue, the serious porpoising that Mercedes are facing affects their performance negatively. From the on board cam or helmut cam you can see how bouncy the car is, which definitly affects their judgement on the braking point.

But I do agree Hamilton that the car has to potential to win races or even championships, it is just the porpoising restricted them from utilizing the car.

Let see whether Mercedes engineers can think out of the box again and perform some magic on the car. ;)

[Sunday Morning]

They can’t do any changes in the engine already cuz the development is frozen. The only things are the aero and the floor design

[Mika]

I heard they can still develop MGU-K and control electronics and a small part but I forgot. Anyway, the engine deficit is really hard to catch up.

I am a Mercedes fan and I am not that worry about Mercedes, I believe they can always give surprising solution to the aero parts, their “sidepod-less” car is already very impressive right? XD

Talking about the floor design Mercedes dropped their curly floor side skirt which is believed to be able to generate vortices on the side of the car and better seal off the floor, such design is dropped in their current car and I still can’t figure out why.

May I ask which team you are supporting? Just interested in knowing that.

[Sunday Morning]

Actually, I’m a Ferrari fan boy. You know? It’s the tradition lol. But I respect every spectrum of F1 fans so just don’t really care about it lol.

[Sunday Morning]

@mika I believe that the Mercedes engineers are good enough to deal with the porpoising issue but I think they have to use at least 3-4 weeks to deal with it, so let’s see.

[Mika]

@sunday-morning Haha just interested in knowing that, not judging you or what.
I do feel happy that Ferrari is backed, I started watching F1 since 2018 and I still can’t forget the battle between Hamilton and Vettel.

[Mika]

@sunday-morning Yes and congrats to Ferrari XD for doing an excellent job at the start of the season.

[Sunday Morning]

I pretty much believe that Mercedes will be back on the front after IMOLA

[Sunday Morning]

@mika because they said they will launch their updated version of W13 at IMOLA

[LEOC]

RB倒數幾圈全退賽…完全沒有估道的可能吧

[Mika]

@sunday-morning Oh really? Wow I am also excited for their update XD

Just hope their update is not going back to the barcelona testing version XDDD

[Sunday Morning]

@mika Unluckily, people are guessing they’ll just bring back the Barcelona version…

[Sunday Morning]

@leoc Exactly, but they seems not only having the fuel pump issue. I think it’s about the reliability issue.

[Mika]

@sunday-morning
The fuel pump becomes a single-source part this year, which means all 10 teams can only use the fuel pump supplied from Bosch as I remember.

[Sunday Morning]

@mika But there’s not only a single part inside the fuel pump. It seems to be the part that every team can invent their own.
