    But that's not a new issue at all, teams have always struggled with that at one point or another, even with the old cars. So whats your point?

    It was never like this with the old car. The new car doesn't respond well to track bar and wedge adjustments.

    No, they do respond, just not the way the teams expect it to respond. Which is part of the reason why it's so good, it makes the team work harder to figure out what exactly it does *positively* respond to.

    Yep. The whole point is so that teams can't just go looking in a book that they've got and say 'Yea, add a quarter-turn of wedge. That'll do it." It's going to be more of a test on what the teams can figure out.
