McLaren MCL32 Honda

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.

For comparison of front wing. To me it looks like it mostly a minor tweak of the livery and not a new front wing. But the lower part below the canards looks slightly different, it could be the angle though!

In this close-up shot I don't see any differences compared to last week to be honest.

Maybe they're testing things they missed out on in the first test, might be quite different tomorrow

Judging from the only sidepod flowvis pic we have few pages ago, I think it is some sort of blown air coming from t-tray area. The flow was detached at that hole area.
