POLYSIL use of materials has benefited the Indian team in Formula E have a better aerodynamic efficiency.
In a series where the chassis is the same, are the details that make the difference. Formula E, this year, release engine has generated an interesting research regarding electrical power units, but on the other hand, the chassis manufactured by Dallara and designed by Spark Racing Technology, You should remain the same.
In the quest to make a difference all possible solutions are studied to bring the two team drivers Mahindra, Nick Heidfeld and Felix Rosenqvist to fight for victory and the title. The team led by Joan Orus championship 2016/17 It is third in the standings of teams and has already accumulated in Hong Kong and Marrakech two podiums and a pole position in the first two races, proving to be potential contenders for Sébastien Buemi and Edams, Defending champions.
Mahindra seems to bet on Italian technology: in addition to the electric motor Magneti Marelli, the Indian team used Nanoprom to repaint the car.
Why? The reason is simple: to catch two birds with one stone: namely save on the weight of the paint on the car and reduce adhesion of dirt and debris rubber body.
The figures show that the adhesion of the rubber would be reduced 80% compared with conventional products, ensuring greater aerodynamic efficiency throughout the race. There are, in fact, adhesives, but they could have affected the aerodynamic drag of a form.
The use of material called POLYSIL Sport, It has been experienced by some teams of Formula 1, and it has allowed Gian Luca and Gabriele Falleti Tredozi save two pounds of weight in the whole body painting Car Mahindra, which by regulation must reach at least 880 kg (eight kilograms less than last year).
Nanotechnology developed by Nanoprom has attracted the attention of Mahindra technicians who are making use of POLYSIL in electric cars. Now, we must expect more surprises in this quest for performance within the series.
