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 ...
With the multi link front arms and re-worked rear it's no surprise that Max said it felt more sure footed and it should help Checo drive it better than was the tricky previous 16 that only Max could muster and Alex finding it was slippery as an eel most of the season
