F1 Teams / Re: Williams F1 cars still have too much belly fat, adding 4 & 1/2 tenths a lap.

In the past cars carried ballast to meet weight requirements, so it's interesting that every part of the car now is crucial, and getting the weight down means making a sacrifice somewhere else... or finding a brilliant solution.
(And I do appreciate that a lot of the 'excess' weight and size of a modern F1 car is dedicated to safety features)
