And why would it be different for a race car that finished third in the constructors&#8217; championship in 2020?<\/p>\n<p>Besides the application of the 2021 technical regulations which bring some aesthetic changes, it is the engine block, hidden under the hood, that has occupied the McLaren engineers.<\/p>\n<p>The Woking team thus benefits from the Mercedes power unit, which is narrower than the Renault. The MCL35M is therefore slightly slimmer at the pontoons, primarily closer to the ground. However, it gains a ventilation on the sides of the cockpit to channel airflow under the hood.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"rounded-sm shadow-3d\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/motorsinside-mclaren-comparaison-2021-2020-arriere-dessus.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison of the top of the 2021 McLaren MCL35M and the 2020 MCL35\" \/><figcaption>Comparison of the top of the 2021 McLaren MCL35M and the 2020 MCL35<\/figcaption><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"rounded-sm shadow-3d\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/motorsinside-mclaren-comparaison-2021-2020-arriere-profil.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison of the rear of the McLaren MCL35M from 2021 and MCL35 from 2020\" \/><figcaption>Comparison of the rear of the 2021 McLaren MCL35M and the 2020 MCL35<\/figcaption><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"rounded-sm shadow-3d\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/motorsinside-mclaren-comparaison-2021-2020-avant.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison of the front of the McLaren MCL35M from 2021 and MCL35 from 2020\" \/><figcaption>Comparison of the front of the McLaren MCL35M from 2021 and MCL35 from 2020<\/figcaption><h2>The front wing<\/h2>\n<p>No major changes in the aerodynamic elements at the front. We simply note a new attachment point for the nose to its wing. A philosophy that is similar to the 2020 Mercedes, Racing Point, and Renault design.<\/p>\n<h2>Pontoons and air flow deflection fins<\/h2>\n<p>The winglets were revised by the 2021 regulations. They are shorter than before, and there is a notable decrease in the number of elements compared to 2020.<\/p>\n<h2>Flat base<\/h2>\n<p>This is the most visible part on the MCL35M: the loss of a few centimeters of its flat floor, just before the rear wheels. As mandated by regulations, this change limits the engineering work around airflow and implies a loss of downforce of 5-10% according to estimates.<\/p>\n<h2>Engine hood<\/h2>\n<p>The arrival of the Mercedes power unit allows McLaren to rethink its design and offers a general refinement of the engine cover. Narrower but with more numerous air intakes. Also notable is a mini wing extending from the engine cover. It&#8217;s still unclear exactly what this might entail.<\/p>\n<h2>Rear wing<\/h2>\n<p>The design of the rear wing is identical. You can simply note two small additional fins that were not on the 2020 version.<\/p>\n<h2>Diffuser<\/h2>\n<p>What about the diffuser? Regulations provide for changes in this area, but McLaren is being secretive by covering its diffuser in photos to keep it hidden from competitors. We will learn more in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have you noticed other points?
