mclaren did say that they will get a huge update for the final race.. so this may be one of those updates....and it is also good to know that the rear wing will not be used next year

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it the same rear wing they've been using this season?

I may be way off on this but I cant tell if that is a rear wing for year or is that something they are testing for next years new regulations? I dont know if anyone has the good eye to figure that out?

In 2008 the European GP took place at Nurburgring and not at Valencia . Hungary was the 11th race in 2008 so Mc Laren brought a few more new FWing specs till the end of the season .
