The first test drives at Silverstone were in the wet , after the first test run MAX said the RB16B feels completely different .
By the wet he couldn't push the car in the high rpm's . But he felt that the car felt more secure and balanced .
But even in the wet the trottle response was outstanding and the PU felt stronger .
About the super gearbox he didn't said a single word because top-secret .
Of course the MIB bulge remains secret as well ...

First out and the 77 Merc has gearbox link problems,'slave' BOT had to sit out as the others went around. Max was doing an optimal handling set up rather than going for a quick lap.
