McLaren MCL39

[AR3-GP]

We don't know where the cars were and at what speeds/lateral/longitudinal loads and/or bumps were being put into the suspension.

Also the idea that Mclaren's "tire management and consistency" comes from "higher ride height" is not right.

Not the best way to see McLaren floor or a 360 of MCL39 but some nice aero details and design parts can be spotted (helped by the sun lightening) .

Interesting point here is that (without the spring/damper restraint) the suspension total compression theoretical is displayed as all the wishbones etc look intact.

The potential in "bump" capacity is in view here for latent mechanical arrangement.

I thought it was interesting for that reason exactly. It also shows how stiff these cars are. With just 3 wheels on the ground, the platform doesn't drop much if any at rolling speed.

Tks to @carpentiers_f1 we have also the cooling system of MCL39 in Mexico:



And hope not to bee off topic by displaying for comparison other solutions. Maybe this show the cooling efficiency of the McLaren package.
