well proton does own lotus… and it is an malaysian team… tough love brits.. they are just using the brand and a spiritual successor to the real lotus team… anyway IF that team plays the english anthem a larger fit will happened in malaysia… dun forget The brits were their ex colonial masters… On the flip side i strongly doubt they will ever be in a position to claim a victory in their first season.

can’t wait to see lotus f1 team to rock the track!

Thanks for the double diffuser clarification guys. My question was aimed at solving some of the aero/passing difficulties we seem to keep having.

I seem to recall when the entire DD protest took place, the opponents claimed the DD would disturb more air and take away aero grip of trailing cars, hence diminishing passing opportunities. I also thought I’d read that the DD would be taken up for discussion for the 2010 car designs.

I guess they decided to let it ride.

You are correct. However Bridgestone refused to make new moulds for a larger rear tire due to the expense. Straight line speeds will go up as well.

Guess they had moulds for the front or the cost is a lot less

I’m also not sure that his assesment of the raised nosecone is accurate. I believe that the FIA specifies that the nosecone be raised to be directly in front of the driver to better absorb impacts/collisions. I dont believe it is inherently more aerodynamically efficient, even if it exposes the section of the wing directly under the nose cone.

Keith, I think you should write an article on the narrower front tires… I see too many questions about it here, and personally… I didn’t now about it
