Welcome to my channel, today is a very special day, 'cause Ferrari began testing some new Spray Guards both with the F1-75 and the SF-24 F1 cars.
Ferrari has tested two striking new versions of the FIA’s experiment spray guards using a 2022 car at its Fiorano test track.
Arthur Leclerc, younger brother of Charles and a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, took the wheel of the car that featured far more dramatic wheel covers than the version first tested by Mercedes last year.
What is officially called the ‘Wet Weather Package’ - WWP for short - is conceived as a spec kit that can be bolted onto cars to run in wet conditions where otherwise the visibility wouldn’t be good enough. This is to prevent a repeat of the farcical 2021 Belgian Grand Prix, in which the result was declared based on a single lap of running under the safety car.
This is not the definitive version of the WWP, but the latest step in data-gathering and correlating the off-track simulation work. The FIA says that “the geometries tested are not yet final solutions, but this exercise will help assess whether the simulations accurately capture the intricate physics of an F1 car in wet conditions”.
When the first version of the WWP was tested last year using a Mercedes driven by Mick Schumacher at Silverstone, it was found that the amount of spray generated was greater than hoped.
The wheel covers used there were relatively compact and in two sections, meaning the FIA targeted testing a second version that encloses far more of the wheels - hence the bulky versions run by Ferrari. This test will play a key role in setting the direction for the FIA’s ongoing attempt to develop an effective WWP.
“What we’re testing in May isn’t the final solution,” FIA single-seater technical director Nikolas Tombazis told media, including The Race, in November. “It’s information gathering to see if that is actually the right path.
“Things would have to go reasonably well to have it in 2025. If that fails, then it would have to be 2026. It would be part of the new package of regulations. Alternatively, if the test doesn’t go well in spring, we may abandon that course and then have to really think about what we do.”
The main question the FIA must answer before the WWP package can be finalised and included in the regulations is whether covering the wheels can reduce the spray sufficiently - with the target being approximately to halve it.
This is because a significant amount of spray is thrown out from the floor out of the diffuser, which cannot be enclosed for aerodynamic reasons.
“What we still have a doubt about is what proportion of the problem is due to the overall diffuser and sucking the water from the track, which is something clearly this thing won’t fix, and how much of it is because of the wheels,” said Tombazis.
“We know both factors are quite significant, so we’re not aiming to solve everything. We know there will still be visibility issues.
“It would be too complicated to do on a set of regulations with cars that have to be in one configuration when it’s dry and have to change when it’s wet. That would be probably a bit too complicated.
“If we conclude that the main factor is nonetheless the diffuser. First of all, I think that the direction that 26 regulations are going, would probably be a step improvement. But secondly, then we would be able to focus some of the work there and see what more we can do.”
Enjoy the video ;)

Testing the Spray Guards in dry conditions fits Ferrari’s strategy
yeah to see if you get any benefit from running them
Part of the track is wet you melt 😂😂😂
They are practicing bird hitting
This is "Plan E", I repeat "Plan E" :))))))

I thought 1st April had been and gone……
Back to the drawing board.
Really giving Redbull x2010 from gran turismo vibes
I miss that car so much
But euh... They threw 6 buckets of water on 20metres of track and the FIA calls that a test?!?!
Smh. 😂😂😂😂
We have been observing for many years the fact that there are imbeciles in the FIA.
That’s all they really needed to conclude plan “b” wasn’t working.
called 'controlled testing'. You dont just throw something new into a 'worse case scenario' right out of the gates, especially not when its a soft-squishy-human operating it.
Nun fehlt nur noch eine Anhaengerkupplung
Nur für Verstappen.
Probably makes water disburse even harder due to it being pushed down one exit route. Doesn’t look anywhere near effective enough to carry forward
0:45 did he wave to you? Awesome!
2:20 Guess habit for the test drivers
@@mitchrich6 The "test driver" was Oliver Bearman.
The fia is going to have them race inflatable bubbles soon at this rate.
Nothing change 😂
good video, thanks, i don't see changes , the high spray continued, es clear, this neumatic big with contact in the floor, good test , anyway
Love the F1-75
What VideoCamera have you used ?
Excellent footage and very interesting, well done 👍🏻
Varryx's always ready 🙌
I can't wait for the pitstops with those covers on
The idea is great but i don't think this concept has proven any good at all but they probably find some other design or solution
It can be seen that this is a stupid and not working idea. The problem is the size of the cars and tires. And the stupidity of Liberty and the FIA.
Pretty much all spray is coming from the diffuser... how do they expect to fix that? My guess is redirecting the airflow to the side of the road is the best option.
I guess they have to come with special rain cars they need to use when it's raining 😂
But then if you're trying to pass the water, it would still affect the car right next to it, with a massive amount of PSI of water coming your way.
@@JuergenGDB in my vision the water would still be propelled upward but upward to the side so an opening would appear in the middle. It would probably not be good for the car tho
Yo voy por el diseño de un alerón delantero con escurridor de piso..😂😂
Ya los Americanos solucionaron el problema.. No corren.. Pero el público ya lo sabe antes de estar mojándose toda una jornada..
The fenders can increase downforce and reduce drag to compensate for using much narrower tires in rain. That is the only way to minimize the tire spray but the aero of the car contributes to spray as well.
Which chassis will they be using here?
Need to be tested in the rain, plus wonder how much drag from them?
Would be interesting to see what would happen if these came with full wets as standard but other cars are on normal inters or risking slicks in variable conditions and cars with the guards gain/lose in some way vs the cars on other tyres without the guards.
Wow, won't that cause more slippage as the water is being retained around the wheel?
Seeing this for the first time, my curiosity is on 3 things... Is it high enough for tire-wear not to cause the lower bits to drag the ground near the end of tire-life? How does it affect heat build-up in the tire? How is it made in relation to crashes/incidents (ie: is it fiberglass that'll shatter into mostly harmless pieces, or is this something that'll potentially cause injuries when its flying at 100km/h into the cockpit of another car?)?
1:53 with Spary Guard and 2:12 without Spary Guard
Wouldn't these guards put more water onto the tyre and track and increase the time it takes for the dry lines to form? I can understand the need for visibility at high speeds during wet races but not sure this is the best answer.
Wow, that's a trip.
sdtarting to look more and more like a LeMans car every year. So much for "open Wheel Racing" and F1 being the technological peak in motorsport
Won't the guards trap the water causing the brakes to stay cool instead of reaching optimal performance temperature faster?
Not going to stop aquaplaning though.
There's still the problem that if it's dry enough to not aquaplane, intermediates are quicker than wets.
The wet tyre is pointless.
A good Ray Ban fashion design glasses & LED set on each car. Easy than that disfuntional wheel cover kit. Pilot thinking 🤔🧐😊
isn‘t the most spray, rain that gets sucked up due to downforce?
is that removable if rain stops?
how they change tires?
looked like they had 2 different styles on that same car.. right side looked like it had 'full encased' wheel covers, while the left side had semi-encased covers with room for a gun to get to the nut to remove the tire
Starting to look like speed racer mach5 cars now😂
You mean the T-180's (Grand Prix Cars) from the movie? Like the Mach 6
@@superxavxii421 yess you are correct aha, still crazy a movie car coming to real life
Lol exactly thought about that... hmm maybe I should rewatch the movie.
I wonder how would they perform a pit stop and change tires using this thing. Do they come off with the tire, as a single piece?
I guess so, it may be a kit preinstalled on every wet wheel... But at these point due to the aerodynamic vantage of having covered wheels in a high speed track like monza may be faster run whit mid wet tire even in dry conditions
Will the track still dry the same in a wet race if it can’t “spray” the water away?
Fair point I'm guessing it'll still dry out just not as quickly tho, as long as it's spraying everywhere it'll dry the track wind etc will still move the water away when lifted
Ahh ok difference most noticeable is from the front tires, less upward spray with the covers.
I still demand turn signals
I thought the thumbnail was clickbait. But ok.🤷
This Man deserves more attention !!!
Im confused.are they supposed to stop the spray??? Because there not working.
Yeah, actually most of the spray is generated by the air flowing at high speed trough the venturi channel under the car. There's no way to avoid that in a ground effect car😅😅😅
Why not bumpers?
No diference in fact maybe more spray from that strange device and i saw another problem how they going to change tyres if needed? Just silly solutions they only need to see the result from Hypercar its all there LOL.
i doubt these will do anything, aero is shooting the water up anyway, maybe it helps at least a bit
The positive side will be keeping the tires warmer but the negatives will be there will be more tyre degradation and there will be issues while Colling the breaks
The most important thing is how the hell will pitstops work 🤯😆
its just for races that have extremely poor conditions. it's not going to be used for normal condition races.
@@elwingy Yeah I came to know after commenting that
Don’t get ahead of yourself with your hypothesis.
They clearly don’t work as intended.
How'd they change the tyres ?
they probably take the whole thing off with a single wheel nut, my guess is that wet tyres would be automatically equipped with these somehow, if its separate the pitstops will be longer and way more prone to mistakes, failures
the Spray come from Ground Effects Cars not from Tires,
Tires is 20%, and the track is not Wet
Every day, we get closer to the Redbull X series
I won't be surprised if the tracks changed into speed racer.
(Joke, Speed Racer was based on an Indy car.)
Edit: I was talking about T-180 sorry for not being specific 😓
The Mach Five is in no accounts an open-wheel racer, Speed runs in a Gran Turismo series. Reports link the Mach Five to an old coupe Ford had manufactured.
@@ArthurX-eg8bc thx bro!
Looks silly, doesn't seem to stop spray looks worse, and how do they expect to change tyres 😂.
Back to the drawn board while they're at it bring back refuelling 😁
Won't water build up just enough to turn the F1 car into a slide
How do they change tyres？
Fr😂
the wheel covers would eliminate turbulence and improve air flow... so the car would be too fast? They'd be forced to design less powerful engines to make the sport comply with safety
5:50 aaaaand... its not working.
Great footage thanks man
Everybody says "open wheel". I would prefer gettin rid of the turbulence from the wheels, instead of keep bangin my head just cause of the tradition.
look horendous 😆 imagine the wheels touching as they do in racing the amount of debris there will be
Bisogna cambiare tutti i vertici della fia f1 persone non all'altezza 😮
Whats next from the FIA? Noisecancelling Guards for the cars. smh.
At high speeds it looks like more water spurts out of the diffuser...
May be just put a tent all over the track?
Batman, is that you?
Well on our way to making the cars so safe and boring that we'll be just watching them all race on sims soon.
Looks good, now you have less grip and still cant see shit so good job
It looks like a kind of fender
It is!
The next changes will be the cigarette lighter and ashtray
Wait 😮, there is no rain 🌧️🤷🏽
I didn't see much difference compared to SF24
Well surely with this mad idea if ur winning the race u be fine but everyone behind yiu will have more chance of aqua planing
As it would leave more water on the track
They testing brand new tires, and we are not allowed to see them, so they cover them.
“Just Say No”
Next thing they will do is have an extremely high performance engine charge batteries to power the car ........Oh wait .
No difference, whatsoever 😂
Good luck with tire changes
Why does the spray guards look worse
Didn’t see a noticeable difference 🤷♂️
But I kinda like them without the guards.
So like 30 sec pitstop now…
thanks for another amazing video!
0:32 what in gods green heart is that abomination????
No more 2 second pits
Wouldn’t it be a good idea to test them on a really wet track..? 🤦🏻♂️
They should go to Spa.
Makes no difference, the tyres still pick up the same amount of water just being dispersed in different directions in the atomsphere still leaving from the rear of the car, waste of time and effort.
🇵🇹Olá amigos da F1!
Uns pensamentos sobre o spray quando à chuva!🤔🤔🤔
Temos que ter pensamento diferente. O problema não é o spray que os carros e pneus fazem, o problema é a água que se acumula na pista!
Não haverá nenhum tipo de pára-lamas que consiga acabar ou mesmo diminuir um pouco o spray, pois este é muito intenso devido à quantidade de água que os pneus de chuva da F1 conseguem drenar do alcatrão da pista e por isso este spray é tão intenso.
A solução é preparar a pista para ser asfaltada com asfalto drenante que não acumula água à superfície.!!! Daí teremos corridas com chuva novamente.!😉☺⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
O primeiro autódromo que investir em asfalto drenante na sua pista vai ser um sucesso.
Aqui em Portugal, alguns quilómetros em algumas autoestrada são asfaltados com asfalto drenante e a diferença, para mais, de segurança quando chove é impressionante quer em aderência quer em visibilidade. A aplicação deste asfalto drenante deve ser muito dispendiosa pois é muito pequena a percentagem de quilómetros que tem aplicado asfalto drenante, aqui em Portugal!
I vote repave Spa. They get plenty of rain,
🤔... Forza Ferrari! 😂😂😂
🏎️🏎️🏎️🇵🇱
Red bull will still give them 2 seconds a lap whenever they feel like.
it need a slope in the back for better aerodynamic, that look pretty dumb
Changing tires and pre-heating them will be a problem maybe, and I think it will be useful for protection with wheel to wheel crashes, its the most common type of crash
Horrible without seeing the wheels move and in the really bad wet all that water trapped in there dangerous.
TEM QUE DESENVOLVER UM CARRO PARA USO DE PARA LAMAS
Just imagine wheel banging and the following carbon fibre explosion.
Anti crash on the wall
So HP really fucked that bueatifull livery for the rest of the year ?
HP wanted to paint tha' whole car tha' color..Ferrari said, Yo HP..Ba Fan Gu, capiche?
We're still gonna have the hp logos so yeah, those will definitely clash with the red imo. I wish they just used black instead of blue for the hp sponsors. And this comes from someone whose favorite color is blue.
Oh phew!..I was worried they were going to make F1 look ridiculous.
Oramai stanno perdendo completamente il lume della ragione, facessero prima ad abolire tutta la categoria.
OMG it’s F1 . We can’t have people calling them mud-guards , it’s much too common … 😂.
Guess it´s a test construction to find out how the tires are working under certain settings and conditions.
Pay attention. It is a test to determine if they can eliminate or lessen the spray when it is raining.
@@Americathebeautiful49 Ah ok that makes sence - has been discussed a few times, if it could be an option to lower the crash risks due rainy conditions.
Looks like they don’t work to me
Whatever the potential technical gains those wheel covers look absolutely rubbish and surely they contrive the open wheel rules.
So spray is an issue now?
Top teir sedans and prototype LeMans cars are fendered out and still produce incredible spray,
Velocity , Water, friction create spray thats just how it is,,
Next they will try and vacuum the spray off tires and recirulate it out the back defuser or maybe use the spray and convert to hydrogen for an Eco Boost 😂😂😂😂
