Interesting. It doesn't explain why the engine cover was so bulbous in the first place though? :?:

Anyone recorded the live timing ?
I thought I'd do a bit of runs analysis replaying the live timing but it seems the replay isn't available on the F1 app. Anyone could help ? Thanks
Here is all timing data from yesterday:

If you have some experience with programming in python you can also have a look at this:

(My software and how I created the above table)

The Merc is already looking much happier in under 10 laps this AM.
Yes he does. Yesterday was worse.

Vor 12 Minuten
Noch sind der W12 und der Weltmeister nicht zu einer Einheit verschmolzen. Hamilton sieht man in Kurven öfters weit gehen.
12 minutes ago
The W12 and the world champion have not yet merged into one unit. Hamilton can often be seen going far in corners.

Edit: Oeps, It seems they were wrong.

Lots of instability for W12... like Red Bull last year during testing.

Seeing how he lost the car on such low speed, it looks like they've lost the rear-end stability. Rear looks lazy.
