[QUOTE="OSFlanker, post: 73219, member: 12"] Interesting comment from Mercedes : [i]............But despite this year's resurgence, Haug (Mercedes Motorsport Director Norbert Haug) is aware that a good engine is no longer a guarantee of success. "I know that it is much more difficult to build a chassis than to build an engine, with all due respect to the engine guys," he said. "You will find four or five engines in the pit lane right now that are very comparable but you obviously do not find five top chassis at the moment."...............[/i] It seems that the Williams is losing out on corner entry and exit speeds, hence the drop in top speed achieved. The BMW engine is still powerful though it seems that it is less fuel efficient hence requires more fuel (which affects the handling!). [/QUOTE]
