Mercedes AMG F1 W06

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.

Probably find thats a wing they used from testing and seeing as it hasn't been broken... no need to change it just yet!

If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

If he goes into specific naughty details, it's on you!

No changes spotted on the FW? AMUS reported a while ago they would show up with a new front wing.

Ted Kravitz said no changes over final test config.

They weren't running one, at least today.

Unlikely - their package already appears to be a pretty high drag one (they're relatively low in the speed trap charts), and Australia is a relatively high speed circuit. I wouldn't expect them to add more downforce parts.

The car threads are meant to be about the actual features of the car. Debate about sector times and what the Ferrari drivers said about their laps belong in the race tread.

If your comment is not about something that can be touched on the car then it doesn't belong in this thread.
