Would look like without a wing?

Oops. Guess it's back to the drawing board.

Mercedes confirmed it was a front wing failure.

Don't worry, Roscoe is fine.

By the looks of that flat spot, he was a passenger for a good bit.

Yeah. I would imagine that the wing failed at the highest speed (highest downforce). Could've been ugly, especially with the combination of high speed, no front downforce and a ton of rear downforce!

It was at T1, so you're right. He was probably moving pretty fast.
