BMW to get double diffuser in Turkey


By The Offsider

Today Robert Kubica, in an interview with autosport, revealed that BMW Sauber's target is to bring the controversial double decker diffuser for the Turskish GP. Initially rumours had pointed that it would be implemented in either the Spanish GP or Monaco. It will effectively mean that the German squad will be the last to introduce it, with Ferrari bringing it to Barcelona, and Red Bull to Monaco

 Kubica's quote:

Q. You could be the only team here without a double diffuser this weekend. Will that penalise you?

RK: I don't know about the others. You say we're the only ones. There is nothing to add. We don't have a double diffuser ready. So I think the target is to bring it for the Istanbul race, so in two races' times. Then we will be ready to extract 100 per cent of the potential of the double diffuser.

*Note the question is wrong, as neither Red Bull nor Toro Rosso will have the DD here

Actually, Ferrari will not be having the DD either. Only the journalists claimed that for the team to create some excitement.

What Ferrari will have is a modified diffuser, not DD or interim DD. They said there will be a big hole in the diffuser. They didnīt claim it as DD, interim, or whatever.
