Renault R26-mass damper system Not new, but the subject of much controversy in Germany, the damper takes the form of a free-moving mass inside a vertical spring. Its function is to reduce the sensitivity of the car's front end to differing load variations between high-and low-speed sections of the track, and to counteract the negative effects of rebound over kerbs, so as to keep the car perfectly balanced and hence-indirectly-improve its aerodynamic efficiency. 1, record 16, English, - mass%20damper%20system
