I foresee a conservative design in 2019. If the team couldn't get any kind of pace in a season with a very mature set of aero regs, I doubt they'll risk it with the new ones.
Last season I thought Paddy would bring some helpful understanding of what made the Mercs so quick. Some mechanical, suspension or aero bit that gave a handful of tenths. Nope.

I agree in a roundabout way.
I think we will have a very similar car to this year but with the built in solutions for stuff like cooling. The merc gearbox will have a pretty big impact on our cooling and diffuser design so I'd imagine the sidepods and rear are where the most change would be.

I start to wonder why Paddy could not see the design faults being made in this car.
He should know what it takes for things to gel and work by now.
Jury is still out with this guy, in my book.
