Is there an inlet under the sidepod intake kind of like Ferrari or just shapes and light playing tricks?
Edit: just a subtle illusion. Picture of other side of the car it all looks flat.

I think it is not assemble yet. I do not recall any opening other that the louvres allowed in that area. Ferrari's solution uses cockpit areas to create those slits, but they are in a completely different location.mantikos wrote: ↑25 May 2023, 16:51My guess feeds ducts that exit over the top of the sidepods for more energetic flow and to avoid boundary layer attachment issues (much like Ferrari) but who knows - it's just a guessRootsap wrote: ↑25 May 2023, 14:37What is this vertical slit in the middle of the sidepod?

Building in modularity to a particular area that you have identified you may want to change doesn't mean it was always planned from before the beginning of the season.
