Came off? It looks more like it was ripped or even cut apart, doesn't it?

If I had to guess, I'd say it wasn't fixed on properly, and ripped a bit more of the bodywork off when it fell off.

Yeah, maybe you're right. If air came underneath it... It just looks so damn angular.

I wonder if Finnish F1 broadcaster media was the only one to say Leclerc made mistake when he had the bodywork damage?

Things aren't looking good for Williams.

 

Why did they run such a small number of laps?

Hard to see that when the Ferrari and Mercedes have done over double the total lap count?

Williams always run low mileage on in-season testing. They like to try a lot of different things and that takes time in the garage.

No and there was no point - it was just a development test for Pirelli.
