As Merc converging to RB philosophy ; their 24 car will be completely re-designed to support that philosophy.
Will that help AM with 24 car since they share lot of parts with Merc?

Who knows. We don't know if they'll change the gearbox or rear suspension. The PU is frozen.

I'd be somewhat surprised if Mercedes flip their car without changes to the back end architecture.

They can still mess around with PU cooling, including intercooler layout, but these are also bits customers can design themselves to begin with.

Right, you don't get cooling when you buy a PU. Obviously, the outlets are were they are.

He will give at least 2 more years to Lance before taking this call.

Yes, Tauri ahead of them, which doesnt seem that far fetched based on the last couple of races.

Looks kind of amateurish to me. I can't imagine Red Bull or Mercedes introduced a part that breaks every time they use it.
