There's also Rory Byrne to work on the Ferrari 2012!
September 14, 2011 08:22
The Ferrari is working on the car 2012, according to statements by Stefano Domenicali will be a Formula 1 with solutions more extreme than those seen this year on the 150 ° Italy that disappointed expectations, ie a machine that will be able to win from the start, allowing Fernando Alonso to fight for the world and not to chase the enemies of the Red Bull Racing, as he had done since he arrived in Maranello. Pat Fry is overseeing a campaign of technicians who purchases, it seems, come even in January by McLaren: the manager is betting a lot on the chassis reinforcement of some departments after James Tortora (simulation), Ioannis Veludis (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and Rupart Daraker (aerodynamics), which came to Maranello in the year. The design of the Red for the next year is headed by Nikolas Tombazis : the greek car produces very accurate in detail, but so far has certainly shone for innovative ideas, always interpreting the regulation to the letter. And then? At Maranello have asked for help once again to Rory Byrne . The South African after he was the designer of the cars of the Prancing Horse from 1997 to 2005 has been linked to Maranello with a role of consultant. Yesterday Rory was seen entering the racing department: is Thailand, where he prefers to spend his free time, but was "called" by Pat Fry to give its views on the contribution of car 2012: the former Benetton technical expert, in fact, has always been a skilled interpreter of the rules . Next year there will be no regulatory distortions by the FIA if we exclude the prohibition of the discharge blowers in speakers: the designers are working to regain the lost downforce due to the prohibition of this solution and the wit of Rory, combined with his experience, could be very useful to Ferrari. According to the first rumors on the Ferrari 2012, it was learned that the car should have a waist line of the passenger lower than the 150 ° Italy: this is a machine that will be "stitched" on him to Fernando Alonso. The Spanish champion, in fact, loves be sitting very low in the cockpit, a riding position that prevents a good visibility at times: during practice for the Grand Prix of Germany, for example, was put to the body a thick precisely to find out exactly how Fernando could further limit his view, especially the side. This year, the pilot of Red, however, is placed in a very upright: a choice that was made to shrink the step, as in the tank must be added space for the KERS. It is not excluded, therefore, a slight increase in wheelbase measures useful to find the right balance of weight, to ensure that the front tires can go directly to temperature, solving one of the problems that have gripped the 150 ° Italy 's years especially with the compounds less soft ...
