The top section of conditioners (to the right of Hilton) seems less curved...

sound like almost identical problemsI think there’s a stark contrast between McLaren and Ferrari. From all indications, McLaren knew from the drawing board where their weakness would be, based on the direction they went with. They knew before China they were front limited and expected to struggle. You could put Barcelona in the same category as China, and they were more competitive with the updates, narrowly missing out on Q3. I’m sure the front wing is the least of their worries, the updates seemed to have delivered. Now it’s about setup and extracting the maximum from the package.f1rules wrote: ↑24 May 2019, 10:25this might as well have been mclarens james key being interviewed

I agree, but remember in testing Carlos explicitly said some weaknesses could be fixed with setup changes, but some with only updates. I think it’s still OK so far, compare with Racing Point, who also brought a big update, but struggled more. Andy Green said the updates did as expected, even though they took a step back. McLaren also said the updates worked. If there was any surprise from China, I think what surprised them was their strong race pace on the track after struggling in qualifying.f1rules wrote: ↑24 May 2019, 12:32well, i dont think they expected the front to be this weak, or maybe the rear to be that strong, and does seem to limit them quiet a bit at the moment. Already in testing they mentioned the car had some veru strong points and some weak ones. We are now 5 races in, and they havent been able to dial out their frontend weakness yet with setup, so maybe some bigger changes needs to be made. But no matter its still far far better than last year and the improvement is obvious this year.
It is believed that Ferrari introduced the feature last year, quickly followed by Red Bull. Mercedes incorporated it into the design of this year’s W10... and it’s now being used by most of the other teams too.
Since we're talking about Mercedes's suspension, here's another look at it. Link: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx0J12yIhcz ... hare_sheetmclaren111 wrote: ↑01 Jun 2019, 10:08https://www.formula1.com/content/dam/fo ... /image.jpg

Do we have something similar on MCL34 ??
