McLaren MCL35М Speculation Thread

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.

at 0:46 you can see part of the car in the reflection of the glass, hard to make out but look's like might be a bigger airbox? can't really make out anything else as not clear enough.

They may be having a fan in there too, to force air into it like they do when in the garage.

I tried to bump up the brightness and the vibrance, but because the image is low quality to begin with, it's easy to distort it. Can't really get that much out of it.

Is it usual to fit engine cover & rear wing for a first fire-up?
