  • Manholes...

    From ~misfit~@21:1/5 to All on Thu Apr 28 16:10:06 2022
    With the underfloor 'downforce' (suction) being so much higher these days I hope that the Miami
    track officials have got all of the manholes well bolted down.

    Actually:

    1. The overall downforce is about the same to somewhat less. Lap times
    haven't changed much.

    2. Generating the same downforce over a greater area of the floor
    results in less pressure reduction for any unit area. i.e. Less force on
    any manhole cover.

    Why not run the race on the Daytona road course?

    Daytona is not Miami, The Money Laundering Capital of Latin America.

    Yes, I know that. That would be a 4 hour drive or a 1 hour flight that
    scant few people would be wiling to take from Miami, and the crowd FIA
    is trying to draw isn't going to come in from Orlando. That constitutes "nowhere near" Miami.
