Ferrari and Red Bull should be continually fined for “bringing the sport into disrepute” for lacking the innovative skills to keep up with Mercedes and making the races boring as gently caress to watch.

Toe in traditionally will give you greater turn in on the corners at the expense of the tires scrubbing more on the straights which generates more heat, lower top speeds and more tire wear. In an perfect world you’re running toe in through the corners to help with the turning and neutral to toe out on the straights for top speed and minimizing tire wear which is basically what this system is trying to do.

I thought it was toe out for corners and neutral/in for straights? That's what Mercedes system does currently.

Make sure to note that the Ferrari is the first and only car to break down and cause a red flag for the entire test

It's going to be funny watching Lewis trying to push his "winning despite, gosh, these drat tyres!" with this system haha

Bad news everyone, steering is banned because it changes the aerodynamics of the car. Braking is banned now too, also acceleration.

honest to god F1 needs a promotion / relegation system. It would A) stop Prema just pay-to-winning F3 all the drat time and B) mean that ferrari were a F2 team forevermore

I can’t actually remember whether raising or lowering the steering rack in relation to the hubs induces toe out so I would run that past the suspension guys before going straight to manufacturing

It's all Rebus. Williams is just him and Claire in a big factory. The race team comes out every couple of weeks from storage.
