Sorry my bad, I would still assume yes as the COG would be different? Unless radiators + packaging could level it out?Marc.W wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:42I mean parallel top/bottom not parallel side/sideF1_CoolFan wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:36I would assume so yes, it would create some weight distribution effects if they weren't. You want the car as parallel as possible.
Wow… That’s probably a picture of the floor McLaren really didn’t want out there

Would be good if you credited the pictures… That way we can follow the sourcesAeroDynamic wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55yepSmallSoldier wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55Wow… That’s probably a picture of the floor McLaren really didn’t want out there
The bottom side is more important so its not that bad that this photo is public, although I agree with your statment.AeroDynamic wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55yepSmallSoldier wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55Wow… That’s probably a picture of the floor McLaren really didn’t want out there

If they really wanted to hide it, they would have at least formed a wall of mechanics around it. They probably don't care much about this photo.bauc wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:57The bottom side is more important so its not that bad that this photo is public, although I agree with your statment.AeroDynamic wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55yepSmallSoldier wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 15:55

Totally agree,Emag wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 12:55Its baffling how people just assume a whole team of engineers "just forgot" to put an undercut on the car.
Guys, everything you see on all cars is backed by enourmous amount of R&D, plus a lot of very smart people.
If you see something implemented a certain way on a car, then it is implemented that way because it was deemed as the most optimal solution by the aforementioned team of people.
I think Mercedes might be doing the same with how far forward their sidepods end.
Yeah it’s utterly bizarre, are there new rules that they can’t put screens up or something?
