Discord is trash. A little integrated pop up box on this site would do the trick. Any admins here capable of such a monumental task?
What about all the knowledge from different series they will gather under "one roof"? Of course, suspension from Extreme E has nothing to do with F1 but some other parts/ideas/etc. could help...McL-H wrote: ↑14 May 2022, 12:05I am afraid the team entering all these other racing competitions shifts focus from F1. Does McLaren still have the ambition to win F1 championships or does it just seeks to do well in racing in a broader perspective? I don’t care about the brand winning FE or Xtreme E titles tbh.. I’d rather have them finally building a great F1 car again. Just my 2 cents, but perhaps I’m missing the bigger perspective.
Not to mention using these other series for "apprenticeships" for technical staff and for drivers.Moving Chicane wrote: ↑14 May 2022, 18:33What about all the knowledge from different series they will gather under "one roof"?

Agreed.
To be fair McLaren is usually pretty reserved about there development route during season, people or journalist are generally more interested in what's going on at Ferrari, Red Bull, MercedesEmag wrote: ↑15 May 2022, 21:14Kind of annoying that there are no words regarding the specifics of upgrades McLaren is bringing in Barcelona. As far as assumptions go, I would say the floor will be changing. And if the "bargeboard" bits change alongside the strakes on the tunnel entrance then I guess that brings tweaks to the front wing as well.
And obviously, I am hoping they finally bring a more refined version of their front brake ducts as well.

I saw that before, but I translated it and it means floor (Actually it said bottom, but I assume that means floor) and front brake duct, not just new front brake ducts as per the in tweet translation.runningmanz wrote: ↑16 May 2022, 07:58Nice!
