So if you take, let's say, a DRS style system.
that point four of a second is moving that wing flap assembly by, let's say, roughly 45 degrees.
If you take over the upside-down wing, it's rotating that wing design by probably 225 degrees.
It has to flip it right over and back down again that same 45 degrees as the DRS wing.
So in point four of a second, that...
red bull or ferrari style rear wing has to move a lot faster than the drs style rear wing does and that's where i say it could be exaggerating the problem fractionally because as you shut down that wing the the slot gap goes from being very wide to being you know the minimum regulation which i think is between 12 and 15 millimeters
the slot gap as that wing is shutting down in that point four of a second that flow needs to reattach to the under surface of the wing so it has more time on a DRS style wing to reattach before you actually turn the steering wheel between hitting the brake pedal and turning the steering wheel it has more time to reattach than the other wing that's flipping over because it's probably it probably struggles to do all that movement within the point four of a second
So when it actually is shut and starts to reattach, which will take milliseconds, but will take milliseconds, it's much closer to the time that you turn the steering wheel.
So in effect, I can understand the problem.
The big problem is, do you go back to a wing that's not as efficient or do you up the speed of the closure of the rear wing?
Do you open the slot gap up fractionally?
Do you reduce the angle of the flaps fractionally so it's not as hard to reattach it?
There's many ways of doing it.
What you have to do is look at the best compromise, I suppose you might call it.
Yes, go back to the DRS style system.
It has more time to reattach, as I say, before you turn the steering wheel.
Aerodynamically reattach.
Mechanically, it can shut earlier, basically.
But in all of that, you're losing potentially, you know, it's thousands of a second of performance, you know.
That's the objective of all this.
