With testing only a week away, we're finally seeing the shakedown runs, some livery changes, some subtle and some huge cars changes. What else is to come? So far RB are showing us nothing..... keeping their cards close. Merc has shown major changes, but Toto is claiming more changes once the car hits the track.
One thing for sure, the Ferrari influenced "bathtubs" are in, in many forms. Major deep channels with slides to the rear, even up high as with the Merc. Merc is sticking to a small pod for now, but most others are doing large on the sidepods, with many variations of the undercut channels and the tubs on top.
One thing for sure, everybody except for Merc seems to be taking the approach of RB and Ferrari with the wider sidepods to manage the rear. Williams has made changes and are sort of still doing their own thing, but not really small pods.
I'll guess we'll see better photos and such next week, but so far what's out there is fairly wild on the sides. It will be interesting to see who got it right this time.
