Just a reminder that this was a FAKE interview in a BS article which was removed from autosport not long after it was put up.
F1 Testing 2012 - Week 1, Jerez
- Thread starter Duke
- Start date
Was there ever an explanation of what happened there? Clearly the article was wrong in many ways, but Autosport doesn't strike me as the kind of place that plays those silly PR games like some of the other websites?
Nope, no explanation, they haven't officially said what that was all about.
You a fanboy? Really? yup currnetly its stable

They are on a whole different level from your normal fanboy. I'm sure we will see though out the season
on that note, Have a good one Sparky but not too good please (I've bought sky and would like a closer season
)

They most certainly are that kind of site though.
"The REAL Lotus is back!" Being one headline after Group Lotus started sponsoring Genii. Happened the same month they had a huge quantity of Lotus marketing material with the magazine.... Hmmmm...
Publishing bias information which has clearly been paid for happens everywhere (EVO mag a few months back was just a 100 page Forza advert), but the article about McLaren was just... Wrong. What benifit to anyone was there to having an article up for a few hours stating that McLaren though Vettel was a great driver?

Well Im a Mclaren fan so lets enjoy the banter.
You guys may have noticed that my spelling isn't all that good.......
well take it easy on me Because I have Dyslexia.
The step itself, yes, but it will be a negligible tiny amount.
The step is a result of running as high nose as possible, therefore creating as much space under the nose as possible. Air flow under the nose and therefore under and around the floor is a massive area for generating downforce. The step will create a bit of turbulence and drag, but it will be insignificant when compared to how the airflow under the car is worked to the cars advantage.
A lot of teams have worked hard to develop airflow in since 2009 under a high nose. The stepped nose is the best way to comply with the new regulations with as little affect on their nose/floor work from the last few years as possible. The exception is McLaren, who have not developed around a maximum height nose for the last few years, so are able to comply with the new regulation with a lower nose, but without compromising the development progress they have made over the last few years.
