I feel like with the porpoising issue the FIA needs to get involved, but raising the minimum ride height is not the way to fix it. They should make it so that teams cannot race if their drivers experience a certain amount of g's or set a limit on the amount that their cars can porpoise. If you are in violation of that then you are forced to raise the ride height. This doesn't punish teams that have gotten it right and it punishes teams that prioritize performance over driver safety *cough cough* Mercedes.

It would not be fair to bring in a minimum ride height that would 'punish' RedBull who have engineered around the problem better. I've seen suggestions of having a vertical G-force ruling, which would limit the amount of porpoising allowed. This would force each team to account for drivers health and safety in whichever manner the team sees fit, without 'punishing' the teams who have engineered more stable cars.

Changing checks for flex wings last year, banning party mode, simplifying wings, banning blown diffusers, minimum weight mandates, changing the floor for 2021, etc etc etc. Innovations with huge performance benefits are frequently neutralised by the FIA, and this isn't even because of perfomance. Safety is important. A regulation change to improve safety would benefit merc and ferrari, yes, but changing the floors for safety reasons last year benefitted rb. This happens all the time.

@@b3nnaman But there is a difference between all the examples you gave and the current problem. The current problem has an easy solution that each team can implement separately - by just raising car height. And because each team has different amounts of porpoising, each team will need to raise it by different amounts. In other words, porpoising is a choice. Not a given due to the regulations like many of the things you listed. Mercedes are actively and purposely choosing performance over driver safety. In this case, a team wide change wouldn't make sense. Only the offenders should be punished. It's different from things like the floor cutouts where everyone was getting too much downforce and it wasn't a choice teams were making but rather it was a result of the regulations. So they had to decrease the load on the tires by making the cutouts. The fact that it affects some more than others was an undesired side effect but also unavoidable. While in this case, it's very avoidable. If your car porpoises too much, you have to raise the height. Simple. The cars have accelerometers on board and it's very easy to quantify how much porpoising a car has (frequency and average G-force of the porpoising by reading accelerometer data) Also, something being done poorly in the past is not a reason to keep doing it poorly in the future. In this case, a minimum ride height for everyone makes absolutely no sense. Especially because each team needs a different increase. Mercedes needing the most, meaning that anyone who has less porpoising then them (including Ferrari) and needs less height increase then them will actually be at a disadvantage... and that's everyone on the grid. In other words, relative to Mercedes, everyone will lose performance.

Regarding porpoising I really miss the option of an FIA regulation not about the car but about driver safety. If that is the goal of an FIA regulation, that should be it. So crudely said: teams are not allowed to race at such a ride height where the driver of the car is shaken more Than such and such. Use g forces, frequency, I don't know. But figure out what is hurting the drivers, figure out if it is damaging to them, cause there is a difference, and prevent that. Don't regulate the car specs to prevent this. That just isn't fair.
@crit-c46372 жыл бұрын
That's the issue, no one knows how to measure it. From changing track conditions that cause it, to different types of tracks (Mercedes thought they had it figured out before Baku, and then Baku's conditions threw a wrench in that). It won't be till next season at the earliest that anything can be done in terms of even knowing what specific conditions make it worse so that it can be measured for regulation. So until then something like minimum ride height would work. On top of all this, safety regulations have to apply unilaterally, meaning every team must be effected by them, and they cannot create a biased system. Yes, some teams have been able to work the porpoising issue out, however giving them a pass and other teams that haven't a penalty is a biased system (Also it incentivises teams to find work arounds that don't necessarily benefit the drivers health, so it won't guarantee the purpose, which is the driver's long term welfare).
@crit-c46372 жыл бұрын
Also you're saying don't regulat the car specs, but then proposing they regulate the car specs (just only for teams that haven't worked porpoising out of the design, which, again, is not a unilateral regulation and creates a biased system that incentivises work arounds that don't guarantee the drivers' safety).

Measuring it is easy, knowing what causes it isn't. The fia already has the sensors required to measure acceleration on the car which they can use to enforce a maximum porpoising amplitude/frequency.

If you've spent time and resources minimizing the porpoising on your car it would be unfair to say that you have to sacrifice a ton of performance because other people cant get their shit in order

This is just the same, The fia should't care how the teams do it but regulate the amplitude and frequency of the porpoising.

The best solution I’ve heard/ seen, is Scott Mansell and Craig Scarborough’s idea in Driver61’a recent video, and that’s to set a maximum G force applied during porpoising (just say 1G for example) that the teams can’t exceed. If they do, FIA notifies them that they need to reduce it, maybe figure out how it can work with Parc ferme, and boom, problem solved. Teams that don’t suffer from porpoising don’t get hurt by others being helped out, or setting minimum ride heights, so everyone is at the same level, and teams that haven’t gotten their cars sorted have to run their cars safer until they can reduce porpoising. Every other idea feels to cheap for teams who have it bad, they get a free ticket to better performance, without actually doing anything, and the teams who have it under control don’t gain anything since they aren’t suffering with it.

This leaves development to the teams and protects the drivers at the same time. Especially if raising the ride height is the best fix for that problem.

No mention of Ham using experimental parts not on Russell’s car, or Ham’s assertion that they chose discomfort over sacrificing performance? Or Toto’s claim that all the driver bar one were in support of changing the rules - which turned out to be an interpretation rather than factual. No, Merc have screwed up and rather than admit that their design philosophy has failed, they are making as much noise about it as possible for the FIA’s sake. Horner was being honest for a change and this is turned into a negative about Horner instead.

is the graphic at 1:30 accurate? i don't recall there being a VSC when PER pitted between laps 16/17. also is the top axis meant to be the lap times for both cases?
@4zael_2 жыл бұрын
I read a few days ago that in the team radios both VER and PER were ordered to maintain the same pace, slower than the one both of them were running. Max kept running faster than the indicated pace even after the lots of times engineer told him to slow to the correct pace. So, Max was faster this time just because he disobeyed the team orders. Red Bull must have freed Checo to adopt the pace he wanted to protect himself against Verstappen.
@tyler_bt33262 жыл бұрын
Nah. That was later in the race, when max was told no DRS. He was already ahead by that point. The point Checo was told “no fighting” was when his tyres were dead and he was struggling for traction. Max was lapping 1.5s faster on somewhat fresher rubber. You could let them fight for position, but with Russel 10 seconds behind do you really want him catching up because your drivers are too busy fighting eachother? We know from Barcelona that Russel will take any opportunity to get ahead of a RB car, so why would you risk that?
@filmzone43902 жыл бұрын
I don't really see why the FIA can't mandate a maximal porpoising. You can easily read the data on how much happens, just set a maximum on frequency and force (i.e. this frequency at that force allowed, more isn't) and police the teams. Anyone who repeatedly violates this (i.e. not just one hard kerb hit throughout the face or something) gets penalised or DSQ'd. This keeps the competition between the teams and ensures driver safety. Then teams like Mercedes can chase performance all they want, without ruining their drivers and moaning to the FIA. It's a rule, they can't break it and have to navigate it.

I think that some form of active rear suspension should be introduced for next season, however in a limited function (not like the 90s). It can only be tuned to negate the bouncing and not anything else. How that can be implemented I don't know but there should be a way.

The fact that porpoising wasn't found or considered a huge problem in wind tunnel tests is a reminder that wind tunnel tests are ultimately just a simulation, and simulations aren't perfect. Perhaps the FIA should consider making the reference cars actual cars for any future rule changes. Run the reference car on a track, no need to pursue performance, but a functional reference car, so do some in-house FIA testing on the reference car to see if they missed any unforeseen issues like porpoising, then from there tweak the rules(and the reference car) to resolve said issue.

Alonso is just demonstrating proper Shithousery in his final F1 years and I love it. As for the yellow flags in qualy, I thought of this: Say you have a track with clear and easy run-off area's like Baku, where drivers who can't make the turn can go down the escape road. If a driver does what Alonso does (or Rosberg in Monaco), make it so that he must stay down the escape road until any cars behind complete their hot lap, so that drivers caught immediately behind can still drive at full speed (if it's only one yellow flag, or maybe make a new caution colour to advise a driver has gone down the escape road but you can still continue your qualy lap). OR if it's a more serious incident like a driver crashing into a tecpro, car blocking the track etc, then wave double yellows and make drivers slow down properly for that. I believe it's unfair to delete lap times for just causing a yellow, as you have to give the driver the benefit of the doubt, and because drivers are usually pushing for their best lap at final part of qualy sessions so they don't get bumped off. That way, if a driver makes a genuine mistake, he doesn't get his time deleted. And there's no benefit to deliberately going off track, as the drivers behind won't be affected by you doing so. For tracks that have gravel/grass runoff's however, hopefully that's enough of a deterrent for drivers not to go off on purpose for risk of damaging the car. Some people don't like gamesmanship but because I play football, I'm not only used to it but I think it's all part of the game. Like when you're winning and you take those few extra seconds to take a throw-in etc. People will say what Rosberg did in Monaco 2014 for example was "cheating", but really all he did was demonstrate a kinda loophole in the regulations to his advantage, so while it's dirty it's definitely not cheating. F1 has always been about using the regulations to whatever advantage you can get as a team/driver.

Just want to point out that acupuncture is a real treatment that works for certain types of injuries. The traditional kind of acupuncture that most people think of is indeed pseudo-science, but what Lewis was probably (hopefully) talking about is a modern adaptation of it, which is proven to be helpful in dealing with certain injuries, including back/neck pain. It does not work as a cure alone, but it is something that helps healing when combined with other forms of treatment. I'm personally struggling with arm/wrist pain, and recently got acupuncture as part of my treatment from a licensed chiropractor, which was also approved by my doctor.

Regarding the danger of porpoising to the drivers, remember that the Texas super speedway was removed from the CART calendar a few years ago when the sustained G-forces were causing some of the drivers to experience near blackout conditions. And also recall the 2005 US GP in Indianapolis where all but six cars declined to take the start. The track was found to be dangerous to most of the field. The FIA refused to make alterations to the track that were proposed by most of the field. It is appropriate to alter the expectations of the racing to preserve the safety of of the drivers. This is done all the time. I have sympathies for the teams who have this sorted out. After all, why penalize successful solutions because some of the teams seem unable to alter their cars to provide the safety that the drivers deserve? If this was just one team where this was a problem then I'd say that altering the expectations is inappropriate. However, the bouncing/porpoising seems nearly universal. So it would seem that this is a legitimate safety issue. Clever people can solve this issue. And if that means revising our expectations, then so be it.

Chainbear, I think you are a little biased towards Mercedes. Dismissing Horners remark liike you did is also skipping over an important part in the way the teams operate. Toto Wolff is known for political games, to start with. And while the others do that as well, there is a benefit for the Merc team if FIA steps in: the other teams will suffer performance as well so Merc wil not drop back even more. I find it a bit too coincidental, that the two drivers complaining the most and loudest are the two Merc drivers. The team that seems to have the most problems with porposising, of which teamboss complaints the most and loudest.

I think the classic example of the FIA 'unfairly' stepping in is Minimum Weights for cars. The minima originally arrived because cars were getting to light and fragile to be safe (looking at you, Lotus, dipping your chassis in an acid bath). Teams could 'choose' to be safer, particularly in a crash, but that 'choice' would mean losing to less safe cars. Thus, minimum weights, crash tests and mandated crash structures. Unfairly penalising teams that got it right? Hmmm - Mercedes got it right with Qualification modes on their engines. Other engine manufacturers *could* have chosen to go that way but didn't. Didn't stop the FIA banning different modes in race an quali, did it? And there was no real suggestion that it was a safety issue. Personally, how would I go? Rule on maximum impact on spine (standard model spine in each car, inspect after race?) this year, RB to reveal their method on this at the end of the season (or earlier if required for car design timelines) to other teams for next year. Maybe a minimum ride-height imposed as an emergency measure for a period this season whilst the sensors etc. are worked out.

The porpoising issue should be solved by the combination of both perspectives. Yes, leave it up to the teams to figure it out, else it would be unfair to the teams that actually did. But also, yes FIA, come in with regulation protecting the health of drivers.. by mandating a maximum allowed porpoising. So the teams should be the ones to fix the issue, but they should also be bounded by regulation. You are allowed to make performance increases by say lowering ride height, but only if the porpoising stays manageable. If there is too much porpoising, we the FIA don't tell you how to fix it, but the car is just simply illegal at that state. To measure porpoising they could use metrics like G forces, the maximum amplitude change and/or the frequency. Set limits on the metrics, and allow for FP1 (and maybe FP2) to be a testing ground where it's okay if the teams are over the limits, but if they are they need to adjust the car before FP3 to be in regulation. So teams would still have the opportunity and responsibility to fix their issues on their own, but the drivers would be guaranteed to have not worse than managable levels of porpoising where it could be dangerous - so in qualy and the race

The FIA shouldn't do any rule change, as other competitors are able to overcome porpoising. It is as good as the 2014 rule changes were for 8 straight years Mercedes was dominant, and other competitors were no match. This must be treated as pure technical issue to be answered by the teams, not with FIA meddling, and rule bending.

The FIA should mandate accelerometers on the seat bottoms and have rules about the maximum allowed continued impacts (so-and-so many max X g impacts in such-and-such a timeframe; could be multiple rules like „max. 3 3g impacts per 30s, 1 5g impact per 5s“ or whatever values would be realistic & healthy). And if teams won‘t adhere to that, disqualify those cars, like with other rule violations. That *will* make them adjust the ride height so that the cars won‘t porpoise as much.
