Was that a micro-mini T-Wing?

Also, welcome to the Canard Club, Sauber.

Probably have a longer one that bolts on and those are stubs for shipping?

They did have a longer one in Australia, those are just the supports. Interestingly they raced with this configuration (supports only) probably because the wing was moving too much

It was quite noticable today, that the T-wing on the Sauber was drooping at its extremities as the speed went up. Probably accidental, but it does show the amount of downward pressure being exerted on these frail devices.

It appears to be a piece bonded on afterwards.

Yes, that is definitely the case as the bond line can be clearly seen.
