Episode Notes
After the Barcelona Grand Prix, McLaren's Lando Norris claimed that if Ferrari had the potential to "embarrass" the competition if it had a stronger engine, adding that the red car is "the class of the field in terms of cornering performance". But is the world champion right?
That's one of the topics tackled by Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson in the latest episode of The Race F1 Tech Show.
Gary also shares his thoughts on how F1 strugglers Aston Martin are approaching this season and gives his opinion on the recent ADUO (Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities) decision.
He also tackles listener questions on how downforce loss is assessed during a race, engine penalties, F1's future bodywork regulations, and Mercedes' reliability concerns.
