As March 20 approaches, the 2022 F1 season will usher in the first competition after the rule change, but the most noteworthy thing before the start of the race is the new car of each team in the 2022 season. Because this new racing car is the biggest change in F1 in recent years, the most aerodynamic-based technical rule reform, the biggest change is the aerodynamic suite part, mainly through the new design to improve the air resistance problem when the car follows the car, so that the car can get more downforce when following the car, in order to increase the new season overtaking, offensive defense visibility.
The 2022 season of F1 car debuts
It is believed that after this major change of rules, it is likely to be an opportunity for a small team like Haas to turn over, so they basically gave up the research and development of the 2021 season of the car all in the 2022 season, and also hope to get a new breakthrough.
Speaking of haas haas team, although it did not score any points in the 2021 season, the new rookie drivers Mik Schumacher and Ma Zeping will continue to serve as team drivers, after all, a rich and a traffic, team leader Steiner still understands the meaning of playing F1. However, in recent days, the Haas HAAS team was the first to release a rendering of the new VF-22 car for the 2022 season.
The new VF-22 car continues last year's theme color, in addition to the team name, the title sponsor Uralkali still occupies the most obvious position on the side of the car, the same large area of white with red and blue lines, it still looks very simple and clean. Of course, this title sponsor Uralkali is ural potash company Uralkali, which is controlled by Ural Chemical, and Ural Chemical is the largest fertilizer manufacturer in Russia, and most of the fertilizers used in the whole of Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia are from Ural Chemical; and these are Ma Zeping's father Dmitry Ma Zeping, so Ma Zeping is a super rich second generation of the standard, and there is also news that Haas HAAS Team intends to sell the team to Ma Zeping's father. But in the end, how this matter can only wait for time to prove.
Under the new technical rules, the new generation of VF-22 cars looks like the chassis surface is cleaner, the original complex side aerodynamic kit has been simplified, and the front nose wing and tail wing shape are also simpler; and the ground effect is introduced again under the new rules, which means that the car still has a very good downforce while simplifying aerodynamics. In addition, the launch of the new 18-inch wheels, the performance of the new season's tires and the matching with the car are all no small challenges for Pirelli.
The era of 13-inch small wheel tires is about to become history
