    Looks like 2016 is going to be Seb's year to shine at #teamred...blown diffuser possibly making a return.

    I sense a slippery slope. Specific rules for this additional exhaust pipe location will be mentioned at some point.

    Yeah, they won't want to upset the hierarchy of the teams, they will have periscope exhausts or something like a Land Rover, or steam engine! Hahahaha

    Interesting that Honda are staying with their current architecture... They must be convinced they sort out their issues. The dual exhaust situation will help them too by providing additional cooling solutions for the turbo.

    Most of the engines use the MGU to prevent the turbo from overboosting the intake making the need of a wastegate unnecessary. By removing energy from the exhaust stream the intake is not over pressurized and the electrical energy can be put into the other MGU to drive the wheels.
