Mercedes GP W02

[Predator]

Looks like revised endplates and cascades to me? And again the small slots are visible.

Maestro272 -> Sure, but they kept it under wraps for so long I was hoping for something a little more adventurous...

[Mandrake]

I asked this question a couple of pages ago already but didn't get an answer:

Can we still see the side impact crash structure in the Sidepod? This was our main argument for the pods to change.....I can still see it there, given that it really is the crash structure.....the car is still illegal then?

[bot6]

Is there a new inverted L shape on the Front wing elements? (seen on the left side near the petronas lettering)

Yes, it's a bit thinner...

[JohnsonsEvilTwin]

There is a hint of flex going on. Bodyroll will account for some of it, but not all of it.
Without seeing both side of the floor it will be impossible to conclude. But its seems to be turn 5 from the angle and inclination of the corner.
Im looking at comparing the front wing of the Red Bull in the same corner if I can find it, and also of those of the pre modded W02.

Who knows Mandrake.

It certainly isnt good for aero, so maybe they have a solution which has yet to be passed as safe. Maybe they dont.

It`s a Renault-esque upper "shovel" wing ... much smaller then previous one
But why they bended the pillars next to the main plain wing?

I think that my biggest problem with that front wing (apart from the fact that it's just the old one with a hole in it) is that it's just plain ugly with all its straight lines...

New endplates:

^ God those rims are gorgeous! And Schumacher seems to smiling under the helmet "muahahahah new update is guuuuuuuuuut"

Also no three element wing which was being suggested by many. Hoping they have it for the start in Australia

New small fins on the side of the nose ... horizontal now, in order to channel downward the clean air to the diffuser?
