McLaren's need to make wholesale car changes was why it couldn't focus on its drag issue for circuits like Spa. F1 Explained:
But Spa's dry grand prix provided more evidence that for all its progress, McLaren's straight-line deficit is still sticking out like a sore thumb, with its cars lacking up to 15 km/h on the straights and Norris"getting overtaken before the DRS zone even started".
When asked to explain the reasons behind its Spa straight-line deficit, Stella said McLaren's need to make wholesale car changes for its B-spec meant that it simply hadn't yet been able to free up the resources to address its drag issue for circuits like Spa. "We have done quite a lot of work on re-designing of the car from the start of the season," Stella explained."One thing that we haven't attacked yet is actually the car at low drag level, so there wasn't much efficiency to gain by going on a small rear wing and we decided to stay at the point in which the car is at the moment most efficient.
