F1: Last year’s car was twitchy, this year’s a bit lazy
In an exclusive interview with RacingNews365, Max Verstappen delved deep into how different 2021 and 2022 F1 cars were. After the 2021 season, F1 totally changed the aerodynamics of the car to bring the racing closer together by reducing the amount of dirty air behind each car.
He said:
“Last year’s car was more agile because the weight was down. The visibility was a lot better on the front axle. But to be honest, in the high-speed corners, these cars are fine, but in the low-speed, they are a bit lazy. At high-speed, they are quite stable, whereas last year’s car was a bit more twitchy, but again in the low-speed, the weight really takes over.”
