Williams admit F1 floor “clearly lacking detail” despite ‘deceptive’ images

Images of the floor of the Williams FW45 emerged following 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant’s crash during final practice a✨t last weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix, prompting comparisons to their competitors.
Interest surrounding F1’s latest generation of ground-effect floors has piqued in recent weeks after the undersides of the Red Bull and Mercedes were exposed in Monac𓆏o.
Vowles pointed out that the images of the Williams 🐎FW4ജ5 are “a little bit deceptive”.
"There were photos🎐 taken of our floor this weekend after Logan went off in FP3 and obviously those have been compared to photography ta♓ken of our competitors just a few weeks ago," he said in a video released by Williams.
"I think one thing to point out is that ඣit is a little bit deceptive.

“We are clearly lacking detail relative to our competitors but you wouldn't have needed the underside of the floor to kno🌟w that," he explained.
"You can see that from lap times. T✱hat's fundamentally a feature of balance characteristics and the car's performance, and downforce as well at the same time, and a⭕ lot of that is being generated by the floor.
“Understanding what your competitors do by getting an image of it and simply copying it won’t help you. It may🐬 give you an instantaneous leg up and understanding of where you should be moving forward. 🌸;
“But if you don’t understand the science and the reason behind it and the flow dynamics, you’ll just have a moment in time rather than an idea of how to consistently become not just as good as thꦜem, but better.
“Furthermore, whatever you hav𓂃e seen o꧅n a competitor is at least six-to-eight weeks out of date and where they are now is further forward.
“So the key 💞behind it all is actually understanding why have they developed the floor in the way they have, and what can we🧔 learn from it and apply it to where we are today to advance our understanding."
