168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari confused technical experts in the F1 paddock🔜 with one intriguing aspect of their tes💧ting programme in Bahrain.

On Thursday (Day 2) of pre-season testing, Hamilton’s SF-25 was fitꦗted with multiple probes which extended from the front wing and stretched out in front of it.

Upon its return to the garage, Sky Sports’ Ted ꦚKravitz got a closer look - but was left bewilder♉ed.

Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari confuses experts in Bahrain

“Let’♉s look at the aero probe on the front, it’s really quite peculiar, andജ unlike anything I’ve ever seen,” Kravitz said.

“It’s a ♏head-on probe, just measuring 📖the air as it hits the central section of the nose.

“You can see the wiring goes into the cooling hole 🍨near the Pr🅷ancing Horse badge because there’s no other way to wire it.

“It’s very low to the ground so Hamilton had to be car𓄧eful on his laps, not to get any kerb strikes, or to get the car close to anything which will upset it.

“It’s lower than the front wing, lower than Hamilton wou൩ld expect the ground clearance to be.

“It’s a really interesting couple of probes. The air flow under the central part of the nose section is crucial to feeding the central part ♌of the floor, and the throat of the car, and getting maximum air flow underneath these ground-effect cars.

“It’s a crucial section for them to measure, even though I’ve never seen two probes li🧸ke that, at that point of the front wing.”

Kravitz was not the♋ only technical expert in Formula 1 who was left scratching his head by the item on Hamilton’s Ferrari.

Sam Collins analysed it: “Those probes stick further forward than the leadi🌄ng edge of the nose.

“The car, in th𓄧eory, should be influencing that. But is it an aerodynamic valve where the air is being pushed ahead of the front wing?

“I think they are trying to get an understanding of the air flow just ahead of th🎃e front ed♛ge of the front wing.

“Then they’ll study more probes downstream, which we haven’t s⛎een yet, w🏅hich will study the impact of that.

“It’s an inte🦩resting layout. I’ve never seen anything likဣe that.”
