Mercedes W13 - Aerodynamics Analysis and Initial Thoughts

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We're on home territory here, but doesn't mean I can't still break down all the details of the Mercedes W13! At first glance many people have been uninspired by the more or less carryover of the rear bodywork, however this car is all about the details.

    It really feels like while Ferrari has tried to innovate with an extreme and very out-there interpretation of the rules, Mercedes decided to adapt and perfect a more conventional and already proven concept. I don't know about the actual racing, but from an engineeristic point of view this is one of the most exciting seasons in decades, F1 teams truly never fail to amaze me.

    @@KevinJDildonik Could be, but they also might have smashed it out of the park, we literally have zero way of knowing yet. If you remember the last big rule change in 2017 Ferrari was by far the most innovative on the grid, and went from a winless season straight to challenging for the title. They've been so conservative after 2017-18 that it's really exciting to see them try something so extreme for once. And of course the Merc being competitive is a safe bet, yes, but we really can't know for sure until after Bahrain. I'm not trying to jinx them, but If you saw the 2005 Ferrari before the season started you'd swear it would dominate just like its predecessors, cause why wouldn't it? And to top it all off we're still yet to see whatever monster Newey's genius has birthed in its full (presumed) glory. I'm just hoping for a close fight at the top, and if Ferrari is part of that then it would make it that much better.

Don't get me wrong, the Merc was better overall, but switch the PUs and it would've surely struggled to win races. The aero concepts weren't night and day (at the nose at least), but the engines definitely were.

    Such an interesting video. Thank you so much. Just a small thing - when you draw over elements of the car, it can sometimes be hard to then remember exactly what I’m looking at as it is covered. I wonder if a brush that was more of a highlight (70%-80% opacity) rather than a solid brush (100% opacity) might help to be able to understand the intricacies of what you are talking about better. Might just be me who is having trouble here but thought I’d mention it. Thanks again

    I was about to suggest something similar, because I also feel that at the end of the explanation the picture is hidden under a lot of lines so I can’t see anymore the part. Other channels erase the previous lines when they talk about another element or another think to look on the same picture and I think it would be also more clear and cleaner here too

I'm so sick of having to settle for channels like The Race and Autosport for analysis of these cars. They may have some talented journalists, but their technical analysis is always incredibly superficial. And despite the fact that both also have capable technical experts who could actually explain the concepts, they always keep those people hidden from view. Anyway rant over, thanks so much for all the work you put in to this, and for sharing your knowledge with us!

    I love this series you're my fave, But it would be nice if you would at the end of your video give us a quick summary of your overall thoughts, So we get a better idea of how you feel about each car compared to the others in terms of overall potential, maybe rate or grade their potential as you see it or your favorites to least. I don't know just an idea, take care!

    I was worried thinking you might have skipped the Merc analysis. But given the long leave and assuming more junior (no offence, but just not Allison type) you should be able to do whatever you want to help your own interests. Like dropping all that sweet, sweet sweet aero knowledge. Best channel on F1 right now, makes the launches exciting. KZread F1 engineering was what got me into the sport in the first place, including you racing stuff. Wish I had the money and time for more advanced stuff.

    Great detail on all of your videos. Your channel has been my "go to" for this season. Question on the Merc: Could the waving floor be feed but the outmost tunnel be creating an amplifies vortex? My thought is air flows from the outmost smaller inlet in creates high and low pressure to create vortices and out washes. The first small wave creates a small vortex and the following waves create a slightingly stronger/larger vortex. This can do three things: 1) increase downforce toward the front of the car, 2) seal the floor and 3) create a wake in front of the rear wheels. Just a thought. Regardless, either all teams are going to adopt or it will disappear from the W13 before the second race.

    Kyle, great series of videos on the new crop of F1 cars! Could you do something about vortices, explaining why teams generate them, why they direct them where they do, and what the effects are? You have an old video about keeping flow attached to wings, but the implementation on these cars seems far more complex than that.
