Mercedes' upgrade package - what have they changed and will it work?

from The Race F1 Tech Show

This year's Monaco Grand Prix had a bigger technical focus than ever, with Mercedes running its much-anticipated upgrade package for the first time. On this episode of the pod, host Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson take a close look at what changes Mercedes have made to the W14, the intension of these changes, and whether they'll bring the performance boost the team are hoping for.Before that, Edd and Gary discuss the other topic that often comes up when contemporary cars race at Monaco: The issue of machinery outgrowing the track, and how they'd go about fixing the problem from a car and track perspective.And finally, in a bumper edition of our listener's questions segment, Gary answers three technical teasers, including one on a possible overlooked element of Mercedes' upgrade, one on the spy shots rival teams will have got from crashed cars being craned in Monaco, and one on how the effect of exhaust gas is simulated.If you'd like to have your tech question answered on the show, send an email or voicenote to [email protected] Race F1 Tech Show, brought to you by Aramco.
