QUOTE(linkinstreet @ May 4 2007, 11:45 PM) I dunno, I feel that the F2007 might have an overheating problem later this season, ecspecially at Monaco with that small engine cover design that they introduced in the recent testing. If the engine is able to withstand the Malaysian weather, I'm sure the engine would be fine in Monaco right? For the MP4 McLaren, They were the only team not to use and extra fin on the front wing, and this is just their version of that. i doubt it will hinder any air as unlike old F1 cars, the air that they want to redirect to the air intake on top of the head now starts 30% after the start length of the nose, as this is FIA's way to lower the power of the car. That's why McLaren had been trying to use smaller nose in the MP4-18 (car not used) and MP4-19 (design failure). they used a wider nose for the MP4-20, but tried it again with the MP4-21. The current MP4-22 seems to be the best design yet   |

It's different in Monaco. You are not going fast enough to get the air in the sidepods efficiently, and usually you can be stuck behind a car long enough to overheat
