Very nice and attached. Doesn't really show any seperation so it looks like their rear concept is working. I just have a funny feeling that they haven't taken the fuel out and turned the wick up yet in a quali style. I think this car will turn a few heads come Melbourne.

funny you mention that, i have the exact same feeling, i think they are pleased merc is grabbing the headlines, maybe also if this suspension trick will turn out to be a golden bullet, merc has definitely helped to draw attention e away from it

I don't see a particular upwash effect, on the rear wing endplate on the hight of the butterfly suspension..?

I put a picture winglet on the endplate this on here last week and for some reason it was deleted!

Back to carbon fibre suspension fairings.

the strakes on the rear wing end plates seem massive compared to other teams...
