F1 has almost as much drama as Soccer! I've been watching the season very closely, but despite how ingenious the F-duct is in getting around the sporting regs, I didn't realize how archaic the implementation is!

Put your hand over this hole if you want to go faster!.. LOL

Simple is the best design! I had one guy try to tell me it's a piezoelectric micro pour blanket that when given electrical signal dilates the pours allowing air flow. He also went on talking how they use it on the scram missile and etc

I was like no, it's just a duct
