McLaren MP4-31 Honda

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.

lol do you know how much df these two parts represent, how important they are :-) i agree visually its not amazing but if they get a breaktrough with either, the gains can be very big.
Personally i dont think we will see any bodywork updates, maybe updates to the bargeboard and sidepod deflector area
