Mercedes AMG F1 W06 Speculation

[Ferraripilot]

That is significantly more undercut at the side pods isn't it. I would think that is worth a few points.

Of downforce? How on earth could you know that?

(Sorry if you were joking)

If it's an inside Merc joke then it's good, otherwise I'd tend to believe the clip and images real, you can see EPSON as sponsor on the tail.

Very defined air channel...

Seems to be a big bulge at the rear of the side pods, where the suspension arm goes through the bodywork.

The W05 was similar during the Jerez test, as the team tested and compared cooling solutions:

If you look closely you can see additional air intakes further back on the top of the side pods underneath merc star.

Hey guys, I'm going to move posts to the official topic. Once that's done, I'm shutting this topic down (you can still post here while I'm moving posts) and will open the official one: http://www.f1technical.net/forum/viewto ... 12&t=21388.

A friendly reminder that posts in the official topic have to be about the physical parts on the car.

EDIT: official one open, this one is closed.
