Lewis quote :- "So I am adjusting myself now to the car. It drives so much different with all the controls we have. You have to use them a lot different to what I had in the past. "Just one example is I never used engine braking before. Here you use a lot of engine braking to turn the car. They are much different brakes to what I had in the past. In the last stint I had to use the rears to turn the car, and other times you have to put all the weight on the front. "Qualifying is not good enough but if I get the car where it was in that middle stint, and start delivering qualifying, fix that, I will have better weekends." Interesting comments from Lewis, an insight into to what he is adapting too. Be interesting to see how successfully he does adapt. He is at least seeming to comprehend what he needs to achieve.
OK so I am probably very slow to find this and it's very old news. So I just watched a youtube vid that appears to explain why Ferrari had so much speed in 2019 and subsequently agreed a deal with FIA to explain how and escape punishment. Basically the single fuel flow meter measured flow at set intervals. Ferrari boosted the max fuel flow at the moments the meter wasn't reading! So they averaged more fuel allowing higher speeds and better acceleration!
