I had heard about the crash, but hadn't gone to look for the video.

Two things came to mind: On these types of cars, I don't think I've ever seen the deck lid dip down before it meets the wing. And I was surprised the car was in first gear for so long.

I realize these are still being developed, so whether the deck contour comes from the rules or is an experiment could make a difference. Same for ratio in first gear.
