Is this the vid you're refering to Andy?

There sure are some changes. Can't wait to see how ground effect works but not so keen on them little mud guards. Rubber coated front wings and other body parts - could do with some of them on my road car.  ;)

Not happy with the suspension clampdown, looking too much towards single spec series for my liking.  >:(

I agree with you about the suspension, John. Far too "spec racer" for my taste. Still, I can understand outlawing those "exotic" torsion bar suspensions. After all, they were used on such futuristic supercars as the Plymouth Valiant & the original VW Beetle.

Just occurred to me these are the new look cars for 22 now, not 21 as stated in headline, they pushed back changes due to Covid didn't they?

Mercedes stated that the amount that was lost for 2021 they have already recovered so expect the Mercs to dominate.

Yes John that's the one, I was in a rush and never checked it. Thanks.
