McLaren reveals bold sidepod solution as part of Singapore F1 upgrade
The McLaren team has made significant revisions to its MCL-60 car for the Singapore Grand Prix, focusing on improving performance in slow corners. The changes include a bold sidepod design with a deep ‘water-slide’ channel, a revised engine cover to better direct airflow, and new fences and diffuser shape on the floor to bring more load. Other areas of the car that have been worked on include new front and rear wing endplate geometry, aerodynamic parts around the Halo, and a revised rear toe link shroud on the rear suspension. Lando Norris will have exclusive use of the entire upgrade package for Singapore, while Oscar Piastri will receive some of the parts. Norris stated that the focus of the changes was to address the car’s weakness in slow corners. The team is excited about the upcoming races in Singapore and Japan.
