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.

Can you explain what area you are talking about? Are we talking break ducts?

Can anybody translate it? :) :) what is he saying? :)
Yes: "Mclaren is bringing updates for the front wing, rear wing, the floor of the car and brake air intakes, we'll see those pieces tomorrow since the pieces have not arrived from woking"

:D
To be more precise, the last part says: "Some parts will arrive tonight from Woking, so we´ll see them tomorrow"
