Does anyone else feel that it’s no coincidence Merc and RBR failed the initial tests, as they seem more likely to push the chassis to the absolute limit with regards to ultimate weight savings and performance.
You’d almost imagine Haas and Williams for example can’t risk making another lay up and would go conservative to make sure they passed first time.
Both reports about them failing tests were proven to be wrong
I wouldn't rule either or both of them from having submitted 2 designs for testing. 1 within the test limits and another that they knew was on the limit.
I can't remember which channel it was, but someone on YouTube was talking about how they'll likely have an inner crash structure that they'll get as slim as they can, and then VF aero fairing over that which would allow them to develop the nose through the year.
