McLaren go for SORT OF stepped nose!

McLaren last week at Mugello. Not quite a stepped nose but definitely much higher than previously.

That'll just be to clean up the airflow underneath. I guess they had more height to play with...

they would need to redesign the whole car to go Seteppednose, but that seems like a nice clever solution

At least one thing still a better looking car than the others well thats my opinion

was interesting during the thursday in qualifying, the mclaren is built so low, that button was complaining about visibility over the team radio, hw couldnt seem the apexes.

That was in relation to plastic structures they put on top to simulate visibility for 2013 with the current set up.

Also interesting to hear that the reason for the change in nose design was because Mclaren said they focused a lot of time at the rear of the car and perhaps did not explore development at the front as much.

I suppose after seeing a few 2012 cars the team must have thought they missed a trick. The Mclaren nose of 2011 required such little work to be done to make it 2012 legal so I guess it was not something they focused a great deal. Clearly with the testing they've done with the added bits, they are already looking at a vast change for 2013 that will more than likely include a step.
