Let’s hope they don’t throw that ugly green sticker on our beautiful car this year.

Mission Winnow is in Ferrari's 2nd tier of sponsors....among others. Santander is in Ferrari's 1st tier of sponsors....among others.

I saw the car today and currently there is no Mission Winnow stickers on it.

Mission Winnow is a curse to Ferrari

Atleast make it white instead of green.

I've seen comments that the F1-75 was porpoising pretty badly in the FP sessions, it will put a lot of extra strain on the cars and drivers over a race distance, Charles looked totally drained after the Saudi race.

Not again

Not again

Started again...already !!

Don't shoot the messenger!

There was no upgrades. They brought some development parts here only for testing. The upgrades will come in Imola, if Ferrari manages to make the parts ready.

[tifosi1993]

Right now, porpoising is affecting us the most. At some tracks the bouncing is less severe, at some it's more persistent. Ferrari haven't found the definitive answer to this problem like Red Bull did.

But they haven't brought any major upgrades yet, unlike the Red Bull. The car is great but Ferrari can't wait around with the base package for too long cause they're giving away free lap times.

[patrese86]

It's early days, we know the first major updates are imola. We have confidence in the correlation, that's enabled us to progress in a way going back to the last third of 2021 season and continuing this season. There's lots to improve on with the bouncing and straight line speed but the potential is there, it's just extracting it but fundementally the car is sound.

[PURE PASSION]

�� The Ferrari F1-75 can afford to preserve its engine during free practice!

Thanks to its high correlation, Ferrari runs with a conservative engine mode on Fridays to have more power in qualifying and the race. This is the case in Melbourne.

Motorsport Italy reports that the new diffuser on the F1-75 was just an experiment. Charles only tested it in FP1. This new diffuser was never planned to be used in Australia. It has been tested to collect data for the first upgrade package.

Agree.
And having one part tested doesn't mean a lot.
In any case I read the reports with a pinch of salt

[Tony]

If the diffuser works though, why not use it? If it's not being used, doesn't that mean it's not working properly?

[Gilles]

As it is designed to simulate something linked to a more complete aero package expected later, it could be not so adapted with the actual floor or actual whole aero package. They said it was not designed for this track, so it's hard to understant clearly what they mean

It was a test part just for data that's why they only had one for Lec. They only wanted some data on track to fine tune the actual update parts for Imola

On Sky they said they didn't want Sainz to feel disadvantaged.

Guys i think Pull rod suspension helps to reduce porpoising for ReDbull

I ve looked at RB cars footages a lot where other cars struggles.

Seems like it is only back end of the car porpoising. Front of the floor not going down as much as back end.

Their pull rod suspension didn't help with the porpoising when the car was launch spec. They brought a hefty upgrade package at the final day of Bahrain testing and solved the porpoising. The floor they brought with that upgrade package solved the bouncing issue, so pull rod suspension had nothing to do with it.

Whatever it is , the car porpoising when you look behind , but it is very little at front footages. Kind of inclined behavior

I want Ferrari to solve the porpoising ASAP, only because we are giving away free lap times to Red Bull. But still, the launch spec F1-75 is still good enough to beat heavily upgraded-not porpoising Red Bull car.

Hopefully the upcoming floor upgrade will solve the porpoising issue once and for all.

[KingCharles]

And this is why Max has a better chance of winning a WDC. RB won't give a damn about Perez and try and maximise Maxs opportunity. If the car worked better for Charles keep the damn thing on!

[tpe]

1. Porpoise happens at the rear of the car, nor the front
2. Experts (?) say it's purely aero related.
3. Some same it's a combination of rear suspension and floor

Let's see

[Gilles]

Yes, we stiffen the rear suspension to limit the porposing, but the cause is aerodynamic and the good solution is also aerodynamic : to limit the action of the venturi tunnels at very high speed

I wonder how RB going to manage Cost limit by the end of season. They are bringing updates after updates. They even built dummy car to fool the oppenents.

And last year they were fall short improving the car for last Quarter of the season.

On Sky they said they didn't want Sainz to feel disadvantaged.

They also interviewed Binotto, and he said the floor was used to collect data for the future only. It's possible the new floor is not designed to work with the rest of the current aero.

It is the ventury tunnels that cause popoising, and these tunnels mostly load the rear. It is for this reason that the first ground effect F1s sometimes fitted inverted rear wings to reduce that load.

Unfortunately we live in the instant gratification era. We are in great shape give it some time . Couldn’t have asked for a better start to the season. Forza Ferrari!
