Isn't every car carsh?
If you could have saved it, then there would be not wreck.
The car snap oevrsteered and smashed into a tree and burst into flames.
Then a car got airborne on an undualting italin freeway feeder and hit some mile poosts/pole and exploded into bits.
Then a car got airborne on anundualting smooth US multi lane freeway
and now a car gets airborne while slowing down on an undulating open road...
-- I guess it could be argued that the cars presented the drivers with uncontrollable situaitons and blame the drivers... but what if the cars have a propensity for unpredictable behaviour when presented with unnatural attitudes and angles of attack?  |
obviously the flatter the underside of a car, the more tendency it has to follow Bernouli's Principle and act like a wing. Look at the two Mercedes wrecks in LeMans (everyone know's the ones i mean. Where the cars suddenly lift off, flip multiple times and land oh so violently) Sure you've got 2 tons of downforce on the car, but if you throw a nice little pocket under the car, guess what. Houston we have a prob.....>crash<....lem.
I guess Ferrari forgot to check for this while driving ruts into Fiorano..or whatever their damn test track is.
