What makes you say they have done anything yet ? B4 hungry that is.

All we can tell from that is that there is flowvis on the diffuser and it looks like it wasn't even placed on the diffuser. It appears like flow from some where further up that made it's way to the diffuser.Macklaren wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 13:29PhilipM said there would be a new floorcharliesmithhd wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 12:43New floor, or are they trying to understand their old one?
at least they now know that some air is actually flowing somewhere around the car.diffuser wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 21:37All we can tell from that is that there is flowvis on the diffuser and it looks like it wasn't even placed on the diffuser.

This was apparently a new diffuser that has been previously tested.
That's flo-viz. And the mid-wing hasn't changed.diffuser wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 23:41Red stripe on the front left of the car (front right of picture). Have they been feeding those chickens that wing looks bigger?
Green on the floor rear right.... new? would have thought that was a mirage had I not seen that other picture with the flowvis.
Pink suspension. I noted this a few weeks ago and I've been away on vacation. I've looked at a few cars a nobody has a bar so thick there. This seems to be how McLaren are compensation for the other bar being so close to the center of the car.

Now I am no aero expert, far from it. But those side fences on the nose seem more disruptive than useful. I would be intrigued to see what would happen if they kept the same basic design, but just deleted the fences...M840TR wrote: ↑28 Jul 2018, 07:29Tunnel-less front wing ready for race.

They capture air that spils off the side of the nose, and direct it around the caradrianjordan wrote: ↑28 Jul 2018, 10:24Now I am no aero expert, far from it.

Has anyone run any CFD simulations to show what they do? Could you run one without them to see the difference?
