The upper wishbones appear to be at almost exactly the same height as last year. The lower wishbones look very slightly higher than last year, thus the upper and lower wishbones may be tad closer together now. Overall, I would say the amount of side-scrub per unit of vertical travel is probably quite similar to last year's car. If anyone has a clear opinion about anti-dive from the pics so far then you're doing better than me.
Unfortunately, I have to agree. I am impressed with their efforts in increasing over-all aerodynamic efficiency of the car, especially with developments in the rear-end of the car. However, I do not see how these developments are going to help in solving the issues with tyres not achieving the working temperature , somewhat high tyre wear and low-speed perfomance. I believe they know what they do and they have choosen the right development path. Just little unimpressed with seeing no considerable changes in the suspension layout.
