Was I the only one that noticed the gap that would appear on the straights and disappear under braking on the Renault's front wing with their onboard shot? It was very reminiscent of the Ferrari with the wing that separated on the straights about 10 years ago.

Most likely just the working suspension under load

The onboard at the beginning of lap 6 with Riccardo, it can be easily seen. There is a definitive gap, then it goes away under braking. The lower board is separated from the nose cone.

Whatever they have is not working. So I doubt anything will come from this.

Best I can provide from my phone... but very clear evidence. Especially if you watch it in real time

It’s probably a production failure ;)

Could explain Renault's lack of pace. Production error
