Tech Review: McLaren MCL39 Front Suspension—Part II
If you missed Part I of my deep dive into MCL39’s novel front suspension, see link below… 1/8

16 “was further away before the contact” — seems to me he had to be pretty close to make contact. FFS and🤦🏻♂️!
Make #1 driver the guy that got distracted, missed a corner all by himself, and gave up his position to the eventual race winner? That guy?
Nice 👍
Is the ratio of pedal travel/rotation to sensor rotation constant? Or does some correction need to be applied to sensor output?
Ferrari have 5 drivers in on track this weekend—shouldn’t be hard to choose the right 2 going forward.
Not watching but rear on the verge of locking up better than snaps of the rear on exit, yes? Imagine regen can be tweaked?
What would he accomplish away? Not catching Max and then hold up LEC when his softs degrade at lap 50.
Agreed. Makers of the rule book could not have foreseen such a scenario, so complex (and, dare I say, stupid) are the rules.
Yes and luckily McL were worse on the day: started on slicks (1 step harder though), ran the hards, pitted late under SC, and almost took each other out.
Exactly this.
I seem to remember how, back in the Brawn/Baldessari days, they tested for, and used, actual test data to predict performance during changeable conditions to make informed decisions… then Domenicali happened. 🤣
Leclerc quote sums it up: “There are teams that consistently make better choices in these conditions.”
It shouldn’t be this difficult and it mustn’t be a gamble.
