“It’s great” - Mercedes’ front suspension trick scrutinised ahead of F1 Bahrain GP
Various💮 technical innovations on the Merc🐠edes W15 F1 car have caught plenty of attention in the early weeks of 2024.
Sky Sports F1 technical analyst Ted Kravitz is impressed by the w🌟ork Mercedes have done with their front suspension and adjustable wishbone on the W15.
Mercedes have adopted an e🌟ntirely new car concept for 2024 with their W15 car as they look to return to winning ways.
The team have made significant architecture changes to where various components are housed, while the cockpit position has also changed to appease 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton.
It seems Mercedes have already push☂ed the boundaries already in terms of new design innovation💎s.
Their front wing has attracted significant attention because of how it uses a carbon fibre wire to connect the nose by the secon꧙d and fourth𝔍 lap - something that has been questioned by other teams and whether it is legal.
Similarly with their front suspensi♌on design and the wishbone being꧟ adjustable.
It should allow Mer💛cedes to better optimise their car setup at a given weekend depending on the track characteristics.
Answering questions as part of a Q&A on Sky Sports F1's website, Kravitz hailed Mercedes for their latest innovation, while explaining how it could gi𓆏ve them an advantage.
“It's great,” he wrote. “A relatively quick change from what seems to be a regular amount of anti-d꧋ive to a💙 massive amount of anti-dive, is a useful thing to have.
“Bu🍎t I'd be absolutely astonished if they🎶 changed it in the middle of a race weekend.
“I think it's the kind of thing where they know the circuit they're going to, let's say one where cars struggle to protect their front tyres such as Hungary or Abu Dhabi, they'd know where ♍they'd want that particular suspension geometry and they'd bring the car with it already fitted.
“But it's nice to know that they can change it qu�𓆏�ite quickly.”
Mercedes look to have made a step forward with this year's challenger follo𒉰wing three days of running in Bahrain for pre-season testing.
Both d🐈rivers have been impressed with the feeling of the W15, but it remains to be seen whether it can challenge the Red Bull RB20 for regular race victories in 2024.
