The real problem is having the computer model set up to better match trackside conditions. We are hearing so many comments and advise from so many people, I have to laugh. Well if Ferrari had the problems with the Wind Tunnel and Correlation issue, we would not see the F2012 so strong right now. The fact is, the last 3 to 5 / 10's is the most difficult to overcome. There is the only real issue Ferrari have to overcome and match the McLaren & Red Bull race cars at this time. Yes, Ferrari is having some problems finding the last 3 to 5 / 10's. The undates Ferrari are trying to find the last 3 to 5 / 10's buy have been falling short of the CFD and Windtunnel data expecetations. Ferrari have to widen the scope of the variables in the CFD and Windtunnel to better match the Trackside conditions. I think this is their biggest shortcoming at this time, not an actual Windtunnel issue. The issue is matching the Track conditions in the Windtunnel and CFd models. This is not impossible but takes a HUGE amount of work to have the "Model" set up correctly in order to reap the most accurate development results!
That's it in a nutshell.
Ciao.
Forza Ferrari!!!!
