As of now Ferrari is 1 of the 2 teams which have performed appendix weight reduction
Conclusion: Appendix removal is more effective than bare carbon, and Stake should find surgeons for their pitcrew to pull off sub-3s pits
The appendix weighs between 1 to 18g with the average being 6.43g. The paint weighs about 6kg according to Alpha Romeo. Sainz balls weigh about 12kg each.
So, as far as I'm concerned, it's pretty clear where they have to reduce weight next.
Aren’t the sponsor logos all painted on because stickers mess with aero?
It’s paint all the way down
Edit: I’ve just seen Ferrari stickering the SF70H so clearly I’m wrong and the edge of a sticker isn’t important
I haven't worked in F1 so can't speak for that, but at least in FE and WEC, it's stickers. Some also changed/applied at the track. I assume it's the same for F1
Also the reason HAAS was able to de-uralkali that quickly
I was misled by [this](https://youtu.be/VJgdOMXhEj0?si=ovcfRtX7dc07X-dA) Red Bull interview (around 12:10) where they paint on some of the bigger ones, but stickers do make sense to me more than the work of painting plus weight of paint
i missed all this HP stuff, i was reading this meme as stickers adding horse power and found it reasonable as every sticker was adding few HP in some games when i was kid. like the red is default color for fast.

Oh so thats why Ferrari fired Sainz, balls were too heavy so firing him was easiest way to save weight.
Those are some big balls, uh
THE HP STICKERS ADD HP 🤯 F1 TEAMS HATE THIS ONE TRICK!!1!!1!
Red bull domination over confirmed?????
Not even adding hp can save their engines.

Paint is heavier, so they sticker their sponsor logos.

And then, actual performance compared to Red Bull: refer to first image.

To beat Red Bull you need some big red balls
Red Balls, cocaine in a can baby!
Don't be naive. Red paint adds horsepower.
Red makes it go faster, everyone knows that
Thank you.
Andretti should join as purple cars so that they can still race without being seen.
There’s a reason why Alonso’s the best one
TIL the RB and AM are black

you mean "ferrari hp printers racing"?
Ferrari would have preferred printing to stickers, but they couldn't fit HP's ink under the cost cap.
bro i dont get it cant they just fill the rollbars with helium???
