•
We sit down with F1 tech expert Craig Scarborough (@ScarbsTech) to discuss where the W14 has gone wrong and what to expect from the W14(B) when it joins the grid at Imola. Topics of conversation include: why Merc's sidepods may not change as much as you expect, why their focus is on the underfloor, and whether they will do anything to fix Lewis' cockpit frustrations.
