McLaren MCL34

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.

I didn't realize until just now: that's not Lyft's logo. What "Lyft" is this?
It's a nicotine pouch product from BAT.

Bargeboards don't look different in those photos. We have to wait for tomorrow to see both cars. I hope it wasn't just a PR rendering because those looked like some pretty nice updates.
Those photos also don't include the new shark fin, which we know is real because there are photos of the updated engine cover in the pit lane.

Lyft is one of the brands of BAT... If I’m not wrong is Tabacco Gum

That's always been there. Do you mean, where is the new one? I'd guess back to back performance tests in FP1.

You're right, looked smaller for some reason. My bad.

judging from its location i would say that its probably some new vape product to go with their BAT sponsors.

So it seems they will do back to back testing tomorrow to see how each of the packages perform. Hopefully the upgrades work out great for the team. There is a lot of new stuff in there, if this gives the expected results then that means they have great correlation and can continue to develop the car throughout the year.

Seems more simple than renders, maybe it’s the angle

Probably not the best angle, everything appears to be there from what I can see.

If I'm not mistaken, some of the more detailed pieces you can see in the renders are being obscured by the large boomerang wing in this photo.
