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.

It seems that the flowvis do get to the diffuser edge.

It possibly Validates 80-90% flow saturation from floor to rear wing forked edge plates. (positive)

So hopefully this will correlate to a more positive form of rear downforce :/

No it's not. Gazzetta only mentions exhaust and rear wing for today.

Piola: configuration – tomorrow there will be a new exhaust, rear bodywork and rear wing, and for Barcelona a new front wing and new diffuser."

Car just left the pits :P

Hopefully they have the correct configuration in place for the last day of testing.

It certainly looks unique, Merc style but further backwards and outboard compared to MGP
