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.

''The nature of the Marina Bay street circuit is tight, twisty and very narrow in places with many first- and second-gear corners. As a result of the low average speeds, the MP4-25 will be set-up for a high aerodynamic downforce configuration''

"...and there, very much in flames, is Jacques Laffite's Ligier. That's obviously a turbo blaze, and of course, Laffite will be able to see that conflagration in his mirrors... he is coolly parking the car somewhere safe."Murray Walker, San Marino 1985
Well, there doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary coming out at the front, so if anything it'd be a "device"-type DDRS. I believe Scarbs dubbed it DRD. However, the airbox does not appear to sport the secondary air intake as seen on the Lotus, Merc and on last year's car. Actually, I'd say it looks more like he's looking at something in the sidepod area if anything.
edit: forget the secondary air intake comment, doesn't appear to be fitted yet
