Great pic by the real @xaviAeroporn confirms Audi using “decomposed” (multi-link) upper wishbone—in contrast to all others using multi-link lower. Merc, I believe, are only team with “classic” wishbones upper and lower.

The exhaust routing looks to have been dropped down to make room for the stay. That rear suspension mounting arrangement—although dramatic—was always suspect.

Best parody of this “food” item here: youtube.com/watch?v=5s1ItGeA…

With rotation direction of flaps, the slot gap between mainplane and 2nd element is likely bigger (for clearance requirements—hinted at in pic) than Ferrari and standard DRS. Also likely 2nd element L/E doesn’t overlap the mainplane T/E (as much) and so reducing slot effect.

Never understood the appeal of building a “pixelated” car model 🤷🏻‍♂️

Looks like VW SP2…

With pic… Floorboard top element camber flipped to be more aligned to greater outwash from undercut reduction.

👍 Ferrari’s inspiration for floor mods 😂

#Luce 😳 Really? Are those aftermarket wheels?

“Works” better, maybe, but OMG, so hard to look at especially when roofline aesthetics are trained by designs like this…
