New Aldo Costa F1 car ‘the one that stands out’ – McLaren

Aldo Costa designs cars that dominate F1

As predicted by AR1.com, the Aldo Costa designed Mercedes is the most impressive of the 2017 Formula 1 designs to emerge so far, according to McLaren chief engineer Peter Prodromou.

Prodromou said it was clear Mercedes had been able to put plenty of focus on the new rules package even while dominating the previous era.

"The car that has impressed me so far is the Mercedes," he said.

"Clearly Mercedes has put a huge amount of man hours into the car.

"That's the one that stands out."
