This week we are joined by aerodynamicist and F1 Tech YouTuber Shubam Sangodkar (follow him on Twitter) to study the last 18 months of Mercedes' technical development and dilemmas! Shub was working at Red Bull for the 2021 and 2022 seasons, and did a comprehensive study on the W14 aerodynamic package on his YouTube page (F1 Aerodynamicist) that we thoroughly recommend watching.


Amongst other things, we ask Shub:

  • How Mercedes' new sidepods and underfloor works?
  • What upgrades to the W14B will they bring in Silverstone and beyond?
  • Did Mercedes over-develop the W13?
  • Has Mercedes fixed their correlation issues?
  • Why did the Zeropod concept fail?
