Team principal Christian Horner told Motorsport.com: "We are aiming to run it on a show car. It won't be a grand prix weekend, but will be a test environment.
"It is a more of a canopy – open topped. So is effectively like a bigger windscreen.
"It is more elegant and hopefully offers better visibility. So let's see what the FIA think of it."
When asked about the downsides of debris or fluids obscuring the screen, Horner said: "Other formulas such as sportscars appear to cope with a screen okay, so it should not be a major issue."
Probably better off just putting a windscreen under the cross bar instead of that central pillar methinks.Thunders wrote:https://twitter.com/nico_rosberg/status ... 6648496128

Some poor designer has sat at a computer screen for weeks coming up with that shape; a man probably led a team to scientifically work it all out. After hours and hours and hours of graft their work finally comes to fruition, with all the excitement of it actually being tested on a real life Formula 1 car and seeing what an actual driver thinks of it.Thunders wrote:Kimi says visibility was ok. So that's something.
