This marks a significant update to Mercedes’ sidepod philosophy, which was changed altogether as part of a much bigger upgrade ܫpackage introduced earlier this year in Monaco.
Mercedes’ u♓pdated sidepod features a more rounded a﷽ir inlet and more aggressive downwash, as well as a concave lower surface which is designed to increase outwash near the rear floor edge.
These changes are in ⭕addiཧtion to a new low-downforce rear wing that is circuit specific to Spa.
Mercedes boss Toto Wolff confirmed the German manufacturer would be bringing updates to Belgium earlier this week, while 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton also refer💮enced them in Thursday’s press conference.
