New BOP (paywalled for now). Except for small weight bump for the 499P all changes are negligible.

Thanks for the info

+3kg -1kw for Alpine, BMW
+2kg 0kw for IF
+1kg -2kw for Lambo
+0kg -1kw for Caddy

+12kg -4kw for Ferrari
+4kg -1kw for Toyota, Porsche
+4kg -2kw for Peugeot

Danke schön.

Does the energy allocation change with the power like normal?

[S griffin]

It’s intriguing how much Ferrari has been punished compared to others

[Adam43]

I also wonder if we’ll see the power gain over 210km/h for Spa. Or will that be a Le Mans thing. You’d think they’d want to try it out before the biggy.

Correcting the changes for Imola. Thus proving beyond any doubt that it was fixed for Imola. Imola is in Italy. Ferrari are from Italy.

Again thank you.

Still playing it safe with the new Peugeot. I think they over estimate how good it might be

[Adam43]

And the changes since Imola relative to Toyota.

Ferrari lose out. Porsche too (slightly) and also the Peugeot which the ACO must see massive potential in Actually they are playing it safe with the new car - it is likely they haven't sorted the new car yet.

Everyone else with a little gain over Toyota.

Small changes as advertised. Which is good for a field that is as close as this.

Also shown are the Qatar to Spa differences.

I did this pretty quickly - shout if you catch an errors.

Bitte!


The article didn't mention.

NP, happy to help. Thank you for the tables and graphs!!



The BoP on the new Peugeot is slightly perplexing, maybe they are setting them up for their big break come Le Mans . More so though, they seem to believe the IF should be quick? I'd love to see that car in the hands of more capable drivers.

According to the article, no go on the power gain over 210km/h parameter yet. Maybe after Le Mans?


LOL of course they gave Ferrari the opportunity to shine at Imola

Is it really? Huge pace at Imola, huge pace last year at Spa. The change was expected and I think it still will be their race to lose. Remembering last year and considering how good Caddy's BOP is, I'd say they can be super strong too but probably no. CGR are absolutely terrible this year in the WEC..

They surely do But Le Mans BOP is (as they said) "special" so probably they'll get some break there.

Neither. Which is both sad and strange they don't even want to try this useful tool to better balance the cars...
