Sounds like the battery charge and mode isn't actually being directly measured. Seems like they're just inferring with a model.
Either way, I'm not really a fan of this. It's kinda cool for fans, but I think this is giving too much valuable information to other teams. There will be less uncertainty and risk in strategy.
"immense calculations, cloud computations" yada yada
Would rather see if the battery is being deployed or charged than some guess as to what happened last lap
Yeah.
Now, broadcasters and fans are only able to hazard a guess at how that unexplained model works.
Rival teams can already determine this too a large extent, based on sector times, blinking lights, etc.
Wouldn't something like this has to be approved by teams before broadcast?
