Does the MCL39 have airspeed indicators built in anywhere? And is it shown on the steering?

Just thinking about how much the driver can factor in changes to downforce if windspeed over the FW is lower.

They already tried the system on Jeddah, but not race it. There only Alex Albon used the system during the race.
