Seems like we could do with knowing how much useful downforce it creates versus the detrimental drag it creates? I suspect due to it’s mounting point the useful downforce is going to be limited, where as the drag is likely to be very real. So I reckon any very small gain you may have regarding cornering / grip is going to be lost with a lower speed around the whole track.
It would be good to see some back to back tests with and without the spoiler fitted.
Suppose it could look that way and I don’t mind giving it a go. But as we are probably talking seconds per lap, ideally we’d want someone with more accurate timing gear than me on my phone
I wonder if a quarter mile drag would show up any significant difference? Just thinking thats one way of ensuring accurate timings?
I really don’t think any of us would be able to measure any difference!
You would have to be turning in consistent lap times to less than a second I reckon…
If we were talking about removing the ‘active’ aero package on the McLaren P1 with all the movable splitters, diffusers and spoilers that generates 600lb downforce… now that WOULD make a difference!
