McLaren MCL33

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Hello mister T(-wing)!

Looks like to further finetune the flow coming from the suspension arms.
Seems too far to interfere, if you're talking rear suspension.

Looks like new barge board to me, completely different connection to the top of the sidepod.

Think they were waiting on bargeboards rather than the rumoured nose then?

See what gets bolted on tommorow I suppose! =D>

Been saying since launch bargedoards would be the first area to get a lot of attention, obviously underdeveloped compared to others and an area of aot of gains to be had.

That's an odd place for them to place a pitot tube array. My guess is that they aren't seeing the airflow that they expected into the intake.....hopefully I'm wrong because that's something that is very hard to change.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see revised fairings on the halo tested tomorrow to somewhat try and address this.

Or they want to see airflow with new parts added and if they have any new Halo fairings?

Nope
To do something well is so worthwhile that to die trying to do it better cannot be foolhardy. It would be a waste of life to do nothing with one's ability, for I feel that life is measured in achievement, not in years alone. ― Bruce McLaren
