Wrex, I belive alesi95 is talking about yaw conditions, where the airflow isn't coming from directly ahead, but at an angle. most windtunnels can do this now by rotating the floor at an angle to the airflow, so they can simulate how well the car performs round turns.

Back to Aerodynamics school for me then

Which, IIRC, is a problem the 1995 McLaren had (perhaps due to the big engine cover?). I wonder if the new air box rules will make much difference here.

If I recall correctly (that one stumped me for years)

Yikes. Wasnt quite expecting something like that. I like it though

I'm pretty pleased with the way the big teams are going with thier cars for this year. Looks like we are gonuing to have a nice variety this year

For the first time, I'm actually looking forward to the Ferrari...

Always look forward to the Ferrari - especially since the last two, which have been sublime. In particular, the F2002, which really shook the F1 world up and re-defined the ideas for the top teams - it was just so compact.
