Mercedes AMG F1 W07

[bhall II]

Teams used to throw all sorts of stuff at the front of the floor to enhance vorticity. Conceptually, the idea is as old as bargeboards.


Also a Costa car

I was promised a new nose, not the garden fence, dagnabbit... Maybe for Lewis in the afternoon?

Where is the supposed new nose? Afternoon?

So, what have the bolted on this morning that everyone has missed because we're all too busy looking for this new nose they're distracting us with?

[Morteza]

It was already there

Let me quote myself from page 5

Mercedes have added a dog-legged turning vane that hangs off the horizontal connector to the sidepod vane.

Why do they use such huge camera mountings on the airbox compared to the other cars?
Also they have them on both sides, no other car has two mountings...

1.Bigger could mean different or more technology/systems
2.Both sides i think we already discussed it with other W0Xs that is about better stability

still no wing pics?

They've stopped for lunch and there was no new wing fitted. They said today or tomorrow.

I think you are all going to be very disappointed. It doesn't make sense for Merc to publicly declare what they are running and when, it's a distraction.
