The team deep dives into each of the teams 2023 cars following their launch and shakedown debuts, what we can see, what we can't, and who we haven't seen so far. As well as analyzing the fascinating new features and design strategies teams have arrived with, signs of teams' learnings from 2022, as well as converging and diverging feature strategies through the field. There is no shortage of exciting tech to talk about and the season hasn't even begun!
