Interesting twist on the thread re tyres/pressures/air.

The FIA are to introduce a standard air pressure measuring devise in 2021. (Like the ECU & fuel flow sensor). It’s now out to tender.

Which does kind of suggest to me that some of the teams may be using ‘air’ that is more/less dense, and could well be blended to suit estimated tyre/track temps.

Like fuel which is now measured in KG, rather than litres, as the density can change.

Anyway interesting stuff and can’t wait for the techie’s to tell us all about it.

The car certainly looks better than the current ones although still having wings on, doesn't quite meet with my approval.
Agreed, but...

Odds on one team turning up without wings as they figure out the floor...?
