I doubt any team will lower the raised section of monocoque, instead they’ll run it forward from the cockpit at 625mm and then step it down to 525mm in the last few cm. That way (aside from the aero benefit) the majority of the monocoque design, suspension and pedals remains in the same place.turbof1 wrote:I suspect due the lower nose the way the driver lies down changes, so they do have to use the new tub.
Still, the picture is too tightly cropped to get anything out of it unfortunaly.
It will still mean the position will change even with a step, some of the 2014 videos shows and explains this.scarbs wrote:I doubt any team will lower the raised section of monocoque, instead they’ll run it forward from the cockpit at 625mm and then step it down to 525mm in the last few cm.

Never thought i would see sutil in anything than force india car. Well with FI talking about podiums and 5th place in the wCC and all that Jazz, I can't help but feel Sutil just may have moved down the grid..
