Daniel Ricciardo's return to F1 has created plenty of excitement, but the Australian could struggle with one aspect of the AT04 car. Story:
have struggled with this year is a limitation in late entry phase to corners, which triggers rear instability. It’s not a great thing for driver confidence.
AlphaTauri’s problem appears to be triggered as, when the car slows a lot, the rear ride height lifts as the downforce peels off. This then triggers an aero imbalance. "If we've improved the rear load on the entry phase, if you've got more rear load, you've got more stability. And we're working on trying to carry that further into the corner, so that the driver can push harder towards late entry apex."
“For example, let's say you wanted to add aero balance for high-speed, which improves the balance but also gives you more load. The raft of updates that AlphaTauri brought to the British GP were aimed to improving this area, but they did not receive a ringing endorsement from Tsunoda.
