Ferrari do events very well and its nice to see the video's. My personal favourite in that vid was Felipe trying to lift a trophy that was both taller and it appeared heavier than his own body! haha. Bless him :)Quote:

Fernando Alonso - 3rd: "After the results of the last few Grands Prix, it's really good news to be back in the top three. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get a perfect lap, because I went off the track at turn 4. I lost seven or eight tenths there and I think also second place on the time sheet, which I believe was within our grasp today. We know our car is more competitive in the wet and it's a shame that this year, it's only rained here, but now we have to look ahead and think about getting on the podium tomorrow, as if we were fighting for the World Championship, because it would be the best way to end the season. Here at Interlagos, you never get consistent conditions and we saw that again today, when we went from an extremely wet track to an almost dry one in ten minutes. That's why I expect a very hectic race in which we will have to pay maximum attention to not making any mistakes. It will also be necessary to have a perfect strategy and an ability to react very quickly."
Sorry to bump this thread, but I was reading back through my old posts and found this.Quote:

Here is a little preliminary technical data on it

To comply with Article 15.4.3 of the Technical Regulations, the cross section of the nose, 50mm behind the tip, must be larger than 9000mm˛. As outlined in the regulations preview, this section can therefore be a rectangle of 9 by 10 centimeters, or otherwise one that is 15cm wide and just 6cm high. Ferrari have clearly chosen to have a wide section, creating a fairly flat top of the nose, rather than a bulge that sticks out ahead of the front wing.
The proximity of this nose also creates a venturi with the front wing itself, attempting to speed up airflow underneath the nose cone. As this will reduce pressure, it will generate downforce. This effect will also induce airflow from higher pressure areas to underneath the nose, again something that is beneficial as teams are still aiming to get as much air as possible towards the floor to help the diffuser. The rounded edges of the upper side of the nose suggest Ferrari is indeed trying to make this happen.
