Is it just me or does the sidepod intake look slightly different too? Lower-outside corner more rounded and overall shape slightly more letter-box shaped.

I was just thinking exactly that – I think the top surface is more flat too, it used to point upwards slightly.

Such a pain to navigate.

Have the got the split turning vanes on the sidepods like ferrari?

**EDIT: just another illusion, doesn't matter.

[astracrazy]

so basically the sidepod entries are more rounded and the side of the sidepod+exhaust seems to have been lowered

[morefirejules08]

So we are looking at evolution rather than revolution

[Nando]

So 3 shark gills pretty much.
Some tweaking to the overall shape but really not much different.

Now i know what Mclaren means with "big" package
small package might even mean taking parts of the car

So.. the high nose prediction is true.

And just for you

Short rear wing flap?

[Huntresa]

The top part of the sidepod just behind the 2 small winglets seem to be much more flat and the dive down to the exhaust seems much steeper, am i wrong?

We shouldn't have expected anything less really....

To me the sidepods arent THAT 'visually different'.....
