Happy Caturday Q sters,

It was an awesome day out, lots of sunshine. Temps will really soar tomorrow.

A sad day in the hockey world yesterday. The death of #16, Henri Richard, (Pocket Rocket) for the Montreal Canadiens. He played all his 20 years, 1955-1975, with the Canadiens. 1256 games, over 1,000 points, 11 Stanley Cups, more than any other NHL player & inducted in the Hockey Hall of Fame.
RIP

Time is the greatest of all warriors.
It's power beyond the scope of any lawyers.
It doesn't destroy but alters beyond recognition.
Who then can return us to our original condition?
Only He, the one who brought it to maternity.
Who preserves us all? The King of Eternity.

It's a lovely day!

It's definitly a gorgeous day out. Just came back from a 3km walk with the neighbour's bowwow. Still a bit of the white stuff out in the back field, better than it has been.
Be prepared for a dark start tomorrow am.

Mercedes: FIA has given dual-axis steering (DAS) all clear





The legality of the Mercedes W11 has come under scrutiny on the second day
of Formula 1 pre-season testing as a trick steering system has reportedly been uncovered.

Onboard footage with Lewis Hamilton on Thursday showed the six-time champion
moving the steering wheel in a backwards/forwards motion (i.e. closer/further away from him).

The Briton was able to pull the steering wheel towards him as he entered the long start/finish straight,
before pushing it away as he came to the end of the straight.

In the footage (seen here), as Hamilton moves the steering wheel,
the toe of the front tyres can be seen to instantly change, reacting to his input.

A system that is capable of changing the toe whilst on-track could provide several major benefits including reduced tyre wear,
better handling in corners and reduced drag on the straights.

Increased toe-in will typically result in reduced oversteer, helping to steady the car and enhance high-speed stability.

Increased toe-out (which an F1 car runs as standard) will typically result in reduced understeer,
helping free up the car, especially during initial turn-in while entering a corner.

Although the adjustment is small, the overall benefit could be significant,
particularly if the system is capable of adjusting the ride height of the car.

The system though seems to be against Article 10.2.3 of the FIA Formula 1 technical regulations which govern
suspension and stipulates that “no adjustment may be made to any suspension system while the car is in motion.”

Mercedes may however argue that toe adjustments aren’t classed as a change to the suspension elements, but the steering.
