In looking at trends of the 2024 cars, the theme is inevitably that of moving further towards the Red Bull design of the previous two years. The two teams who had previously been the furthest away from that general layout were Mercedes and Ferrari (albeit in quite different ways). So it is those two teams who have made the most fundamental changes.After being left even further behind Red Bull last season than had been the case the year before, there was a dawning realisation at both Mercedes and Ferrari that a fundamental re-evaluation was needed in the concept of their cars for ’24. Those cars, the Mercedes W15 and Ferrari SF-24, have now been revealed and are about to hit the track in Bahrain. We can see that in both cases, that re-evaluation has involved moving the major masses of the cars within their wheelbases in an attempt at creating a more effective aerodynamic platform. Here we look at how each of those teams has gone about doing that.
