Mclaren MP4-30 Honda

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.

Nice, that's the Merc/RBesque Front wing that was mentioned since Spa. That's a pretty big update Package for this Race. Nice to see they are really pushing development.

Exhaust also looks like it has been raised up and away from the rear crash structure.

Yes, they trialed that in Singapore already in combination with a Monkey Seat.

The User "AustinF1" over at the Autosport Forum took this Picture on a Pit Walk. Do i spot an incomplete Monkey Seat or is it something standing behind the Car?

Edit: Could just be used for mounting some Pitot Array if i look closer.

I´d say it is behind the car. Look at the rear wing, the focus is very different so I think that structure is further away.... plus the exhaust is in front of it
