I can’t quite tell. But I have managed to load up the files in Solidworks and build a Williams FW43B!
The thing is, just my own opinion here, it’s not so much about what it gives away about the Williams setup. It’s more about what it gives away about Mercedes. There’s a lot of internal aero, implied chassis features (ie not present but quite obvious) and suspension pickup points on view. I would wager that a lot of those things are in the places they are because it’s determined by the current Mercedes power plant, layout and cooling requirements. I reckon it gives away a lot about the current Mercedes car and its engine. I only say that as a recent ex F1 engineer and because I know why certain components and features were in certain places on our car.
Was that the 'hack' I read about? i.e. not so much of a hack as a massive fuck up.
