McLaren looking to "correct" 2019 problems ahead of 2020
McLaren's technical director James Key has suggested that his team could be changing the design of their front wing ahead of the 2020 season. The team that finished 'best of the rest' struggled with the front end of the car so Key is looking to tweak things but is worried that he could impact the performance of the whole car.
"There are still many possibilities with these rules if we look at the fastest three," Key said to Marca. "The current car has strengths and weaknesses, for example, the front has been a weakness from the beginning and we have tried to understand why and how to correct it, just as a good job has been done to know what features of the car avoid other problems."
"It is a balance, we try not to go too far because we have competitive material, but we also have to risk to find more potential."
In 2019 McLaren had some problems in the long slow corners. They have acknowledged this and are looking to put it right ahead of the start of next season.
