and this too

if you actually bother to read the comments, there are people out there claiming that vibration doesn't necessarily mean you have flexible
aero components...

I mean, half the stuff on a race car vibrates...

flexible wings are banned because they let teams cheat by
adjusting downforce on the fly...

but this whole phantom vibration thing we saw with the R28 has absolutely nothing to do with flexible aerodynamics.

You haven't convinced me.β˜•

Look, I wasn't even trying to convince you... if you had actually listened to what I was saying instead of just hearing what you wanted to hear, you would have realized my whole point was that McLaren's wings aren't even
subject to any kind of restriction... I'm certainly not the one making that claim

Jason Campbell70 said:Following footage like this released by the FIA, they’ve already started issuing warnings directed at Ferrari.
By the next race, Ferrari showed up with a redesigned nose that completely eliminated that lateral movement issue.

And I’ll say it again, purely for the sake of consistency, I fully expect to see a similar warning handed out to Renault.β˜•

I haven't seen anything on the onboard cameras that matches what you claim to have spotted...

It’s honestly a bit laughable that you’re seeing things that not a single rival team has even noticed; I think you might be getting a little too worked up over nothing.

The reality is that every single complaint that actually reaches the FIA comes from competing teams...

so it’s highly likely they’ll find plenty of things to strip away from those guys, too.

Man, what a mess... honestly, you're always the one digging your heels in on something, aren't you? πŸ˜‰

Just take a look at how that "bridge" structure lowers itself once you pick up speed, only to tilt upward the moment you hit the brakes or dive into a corner.

I mean, did you seriously not catch onto that? Just try to wrap your head around the kind of insane stability you'd get if that thing was constantly adjusting on the fly.
It’s essentially the same concept behind those innovations Benetton rolled out back in the early nineties.
