This is why this "simple" design isn't as simple as it sounds.
Don't forget down force is proportional to speed.
My "engineer" friend told me the RB16B's flexi wing was also gps controlled, which is why it was banned.  |
That's really funny !
There are also high speed turns , where they reach 300 + km/h !
And your valve will not be activated ..
If your valve would be activated in a 300 km/h turn . Your Merc would meet a wall in no time !
The rear squat suspension is programmed in the track configuration and controlled via GPS .
The system is accurate at +/- 1 meter .
It's impossible to make it work in the Red Bull by the RB16's high-rake .
The Wolf won't tell you that !
