      The kind of reliability needed from the nut and impact gun, and the overseas kits already sent, it's not possible to test and implement this fast, especially with the budget cap... For something that was such a rare chance...
      Maybe if they find the money they might look at it in the context of the 18 inch wheels in 2022

    • @cpf6125

      No. According to Sam Collins on F1TV Tech Talk you can change even the homologated parts without using a token if it's for a reliability issue.

    F1 - Sainz tells the secret of Ferrari pole in Baku Saturday, June 5, 2021 at 19:24
    Carlos Sainz, the “engineer-driver” as he became known at McLaren, gave the lyrics of how Ferrari managed to be so competitive on a track that plays against its UP weaker than Mercedes and Honda.
    Monaco valued the strengths of the Ferrari, which is excellent in low-speed corners and its ease of climbing over curbs much more smoothly than other cars, thanks to its great suspension. And Monaco doesn't need a strong UP, as there aren't any relevant straights, or even bull curves.
    Baku is also a street circuit, so Ferrari's strengths still apply, but there is a big difference, specifically a 2.2km stretch from turn 15 to turn 1 standing upright where it really needs the UP. Even so, Ferrari made it work.
    Sainz was very frustrated at having his Q3 compromised when he crashed after Yuki Tsunoda hit the wall at turn 3. Still, he was in a good enough mood to explain what Ferrari did in setting up the car to go much better than expected. .
    Sainz said the car's level of mechanical grip is so good, it allowed them to make a low-downforce setting on a circuit where the aerodynamic compromise between sectors 2 and 3 theoretically needs to be made.
    “We're generating a lot of mechanical grip on low speed corners, mechanics and aerodynamics, and this has allowed us to take the angulation off the rear wing and therefore have less drag on the straights and still be decent on low speed corners,” explained Sainz when asked how the Ferrari did it to mask its weaknesses.
    “One of our weaknesses is the medium and high speed curves with a long radius, and there is no such thing here. Obviously, we're exploring the car's potential well.”
    “And it's a very good car to drive, it's giving me confidence. I'm really enjoying guiding him, so obviously I'm disappointed that I couldn't get a bit more out of him considering the circumstances.”
    The speep trap numbers confirm this, with Ferrari showing up strongly in all of them, although Sainz's mighty 344kph at the finish line can only have come from a fairly significant vacuum. Leclerc was also second fastest in the first and second sectors and, thanks to Hamilton's vacuum on the straight, he was third fastest in the final sector, showing that the car ran well on the lap.
    Sainz accepted that “you might think we were lying about our expectations here in Baku, but that wasn't the case. The entire team was genuinely surprised that this arrangement worked so well.”
    “It's important for us to confirm our progress and the team as a whole is in good shape,” said Reds boss Mattia Binotto.
    “We knew it's a different track than Monaco, we know that in Monaco it's all low speed corners and here you have the part of the track where you have low speed corners, but you have a very, very long stretch in a straight line too. , so we weren't thinking about getting the pole.”
    “We expected it to be more difficult, but on Friday we saw that our car was doing well with the low downforce package as well. So, after yesterday, we knew we had a chance.”
    Race pace, of course, is different from lap pace, and riding with the low-downforce rear wing can come at a price on Sunday in terms of how much will be required from the tyres. But in compensation, at the pace of a flying lap, Ferrari was legitimately - and unexpectedly - ​​fast in Baku.

      After high school you have to study: Mechanical engineering or aeronautical engineering with a master degree in motors or electronics or performance or physics. Don't forget that engineers in F1 are the best of the best in the world. And don't forget what Confucius said: "if you want to go around the earth on foot, start with a first step and then take another step"...It is just about how much do you want to reach your goal. So....Go For It.
