At day’s end, the team changed to a second transmission that had a spool differential in it for use on the second day. Typically, when going around a corner, the wheel on the outside of the corner has to turn faster than the wheel on the inside of the corner. With a spool differential, the wheels were locked together. The car doesn’t want to get around a corner since the inside and outside wheels can’t turn at different speeds.

So they are sticking with a spool differential?
Also on the tire front they are still evaluating options. That was one of the questions I had for the G56 entry. Would they be using the standard Goodyears or bring their own.
