Sensors!

Some sensors and florescent paint from the Jerez test. After the jump, Notice how a characteristic of the top 2011 cars are the very short sidepods and low gearbox to allow as much space as possible for airflow to wrap around the rear and into the diffuse/rear wing area.

  1. AC - think they were saying the cowling was different body work for hot weather tracks. Although maybe I'm talking crap!

  2. OMG, sensors aside - it's fantastic that almost all of the cars have "Szybkiego powrotu do zdrowia, Robert!" one them, i.e. wishing Kubica to get back to full health ASAP in Polish. Great touch, love it :)

  4. It gives me the chills to see PDVSA sponsorship on the Williams. The might as well put "Corruption" there.
