2011 F1 cars
Last year’s Ferrari won five races and nearly took Fernando Alonso to the championship.

Different reference points were used to scale the images including tyres and wings. However they should not be considered an exact reflection of the relative dimensions of the two cars.

Seriously people, there are enough differences to last years car.
I almost got sucked into the its the same trap, but it really isn’t.
Open thy eyes….
What do people expect? The regulations are tight.
The are 15 – 20 what I would call major changes and that is without the new front wing….
BBT (@bbt) said on 28th January 2011, 16:00
Considering the regulations I think the following are significant….
No F-duct,
No shark fin
Single diffuser
KERS
Higher front nose,
Wider nose
Air box
Side pod entries
Rear suspension
Exhaust exits
Rear wing
Barge boards
Gearbox area
etc
OK you can’t see the KERS but its there, and there will be other major differences you can’t see, weight distribution, centre of gravity etc.

I think it can be a shark fin in that car after some test. Front suspension was also modified.

It sure looks bulkier then the F10. To me, they are different enough. And let’s see at the first test how the real deal looks

Bulkier than the F10? Really? Looks more tailored to me, and less bulkier…
BBT said on 29th January 2011, 9:40
If you mean clearer air flow from front to back, I agree.
Tighter back-end as well.
The nose and side pod seem a bit bulker though
Catalina ;) said on 28th January 2011, 23:23
yep, it looks bulkier

Maybe we have different definitions of the word, its more direct this year.

The head-on view of the front wings is the only thing I genuinely dislike about the current spec of F1 car. I don’t mind their width too much but the endless additions make me feel ill.

Hmmm – Ferrari obviously have decided there is no benefit in Mercedes’ airbox approach. I wonder if any other teams may copy the idea.
Catalina ;) said on 29th January 2011, 16:09
Even if they found some benefit they can’t do it cos modifications into that area are not allowed.

I don’t know if anybody has noticed that the rear push rod suspension is attached deeper (forward) underneath the engine cover. I guess that’s the way they reduced the aerodynamic profile in the rear section of the car and allowed space for the exhaust system and diffuser. (exhaust blown diffuser) any comment?
BBT (@bbt) said on 28th January 2011, 18:56
Possibly, yes, but I think they have something else as well that we have not seen in that department yet.

too bad the rear of the car is heavily shaded. the two black things sticking out of the nose are cameras right ? i wonder why they were moved, due to regs or part of the design change ? Nothing big I’m sure, just curious.

hey i can see the two splitters under the nose i thought they were getting rid of them?

Looks remarkably a lot like the 2010 McLaren= Nose, front wing and smaller, squarer, sidepod intakes.

The Bridgestone lettering has faded on the 2010 car.
BBT said on 29th January 2011, 9:42
The more you look the more you notice, the cockpit area is different as well.
LoneFanMX said on 29th January 2011, 23:30
Just as I suspected: (Ferrari) “…has chosen to retain conventional push rods but with substantial work has been carried out on damper placement, moving them from above the transmission further forward and lower in the car.” http://t.co/9LnJifS
