"First of all the CFD simulations are quite tricky, because you have to simulate also the water particles," he says."Secondly, when there's water droplets inside a flow field, it's actually quite complicated physics. "We didn't want to lose too much performance of the cars and mess up the aerodynamics too much," says Tombazis.
"And as it turns out, they didn't make a tangible difference. But we did gain a lot of correlation and a lot of data that we now can more confidently correlate. So I think it was a useful first test. One complicated aspect is assessing how much spray is generated by the diffuser, which is something the spray guard programme can't address.
