compared to the williams, the 2009 BMW is truly epic (aesthetic) PHAIL

Do you prefer removing an eyesore or making cars more stable and faster? Thos winglet additions gave a huge boost to stability and increased speed.kylef wrote:

In other news, Vettel is moving to Red Bull Racing and Force India are finally getting McLaren engines. It's annoying that the engine limits are now not minimum 2 races but 3. It's going to be hell at Spa / Monza / Singapore now because they are arguably the most demanding races for the engine - and they run consecutively.
Also, does anyone know is it confirmed that if when the safety car is deployed the pit line will remain open from now on? Wikipedia didn't shed much light on the rumour
yes but its not fun or dangerous it is when your car could spin off and burst into flames.Zimmer wrote:

I'd watch for that thing crossing the line first an awful lot. I mean BMW where up there this year even after they stoped developin the car with a bias towards more effort on that thing. Renault got there chasis down a bit late on the 08 car, if they can translate that into the 09 car and honda move there ass aswell (I believe they have worked on the 09 car the longest) and this apparant better at over taking should give us a kick ass seasontahadar wrote:

So long as kimi does win the championship though. Fuckin iceman rule.

New aero laws by FIA will give increased stability, as will slicks. It's a fair compromise.Zimmer wrote:

Kind of reminds me of NFS series with the "NOS" feature.VicktorVauhn wrote:

Overtaking by pushing a button rather then using skill FTL.

Don't need all that ground effect shite as Mr.Dale8 put it, because of the slicks (I think, something like that)
Also these cars are gonna have KERS. Basically the energy that's given out during braking will be stored as electricity and can give a boost when needed

Atm, I believe Honda is the only team that has managed to get it to work right.
PAHAHAHAHAHA oh man. That's funnyKez wrote:

You're joking right?Blade4509 wrote:
Wow that KERS sounds sweet. When does the season start?
It doesn't add any weight to the car. All the cars must weigh 600kg. Not to sure about if that's car plus driver or just car, but I think it includes driver. The disadvantage is that with KERS you can't distribute the 'ballast' where ever you want. But all that is irrelevant because next year FOTA has agreed not to use the system.Nappy wrote:
yeh sounds good! i dont know if the 40kg (its about that isnt it?) would be worth it to have a short boost every lap
