Mercedes W12 magic floor unveiled. Appears Mercedes have managed to fit a piece of furniture on their floor which acts as both a diffuser and vortex generator. Who said this season wouldn't have innovation? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Tens of millions(probably much more) are squandered on this meaningless aero tech. Cut costs in F1--throttle the aero.
simplify the wings, floor, diffuser, remove the barge boards. Cars are more beautiful, more of a handful to drive, closer following is possible. Team spending goes down by 50+%. And remove that bastard DRS.
there are some obvious differences though. Didn't Mercedes test new floor designs late in 2020 once the titles were secured?
Well yes, but they're close to Mercedes floor. Yes I believe so in the latter half of the 2020 season.
We can only hope that (among other issues) the Merc will not adapt well to the new tires. And since the AM is the same car hopefully they struggle also. Either that or their sandbags are overflowing and responsible for the sandstorm.
