A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

They still seem to have a lot of technical problems in Australia. Heikki's KERS, DRS and track rod and Vitali's power steering (?). The car's they are supposed to fight are just so good at the moment.

The number is irrelevant, my point was that any penis waggling about "I can see n changes" is exactly that – penis waggling, it depends entirely on what you count as a "change". Can we talk about what we think the wing is doing now (if anything interesting)?

Looks like there a step change downwards slightly, better pivot point for flexing?

I wonder if they will try and copy RBR preseason exhaust layout, it's clearly pretty effective and there's enough similarities between the 2 cars to make it viable.

That's the only one for now. I don't see the same ramp like RB or Sauber had, so I said MaCa. More pics to come.

Well there is no ramp, so its a mix between mclaren and sauber exhausts.

RBR style duct on the new exhaust?

It also shows at least 260 Celsius on the bodywork.

Edit:
This image confirms it.
