[F1INGENERALE] Ferrari's "Macarena" wing outperforms Red Bull's design: its counterclockwise rotation recovers downforce during the flap closing phase. Red Bull's clockwise flap delays aerodynamic recovery until fully reset, risking sudden grip loss as seen in Verstappen's crashes.

>"Ferrari deserves significant recognition. Their “Macarena” wing is not an isolated component but works in close synergy with the diffuser and exhaust. This complexity makes it hard for others to replicate Maranello’s concept and explains why many teams still struggle to develop an effective flipping rear wing."

[AutoRacer] Madrid closes streets and invites Ferrari for a 200 km Filming Day on July 9 to inaugurate Madring with Leclerc and Hamilton. With circuit organizers covering costs, it helps the budget cap with savings to use elsewhere. No new parts will be tested, but the team will still collect data.

At Maranello, inaccurate simulations indicated the Ferrari was up to 6-7 tenths slower on certain circuits, including Spa. The Scuderia chose to spend less on the base project, so SF-26 developments won't slow down: a new MGU-K spec was used, with a third, high-DF package for Zandvoort.

"In long-duration corners, like in Spain, the SF-26 is setting the benchmark. Austria lacked these types of corners, and more importantly, there was an invisible enemy: low air density. The combination of high altitude and operating temperatures severely compromised the energy deployment algorithm."

Posting the full quote below as I reached characters limit:

>"It is more interesting than anticipated. In long-duration corners, the SF-26 is setting the benchmark, much like it did in Barcelona.
Austria lacked these types of corners, and more importantly, there was an invisible enemy: low air density. The combination of high altitude and operating temperatures severely compromised the energy deployment algorithm.
We are seeing an output increase of at least 15 kW at Silverstone, which has yielded a far superior overall balance compared to the competition so far, bringing the car roughly on par with Mercedes. Lewis made up the rest of the difference."
