Today's unveiled Mercedes AMG F1 W09 resembles a lot its sucessful predecessor, the championship winning W08. And this is no coincidence, as team boss Toto Wolff reveals. However, there are some interesting changes to come this year with the new car.
Yup! If Bottas is going to take penalties and start from the back the shallower wing is definitely going to help. By the way, RaceFans.com said that Mercedes will decide overnight whether to fit new power unit parts to Bottas's car.
The summer break will, by the fact that the factories are closed, be a little limiting in opportunities to do updates...
Looks like some development in the bargeboard area from what I can tell here.Morteza wrote: ↑23 Aug 2018, 17:00They have brought the front wing they tested in Hungary [with two "r" cascades instead of one]
