I think it's just a coincidence that the car is harvesting while in reverse, so all 3 rear light units come on.

Looking at the replay, I did wonder if it was a reflection near the centre light you had seen?

This is the first season with end plate lights, I think they'll stand out quite a bit in the night races.

I guess they don't stand out too much if this is the first time you've noticed them?

I knew it was a coincidence they came on as he was reversing. I do like the rear lights, they are a fancy addition this season. They certainly look the part

Good old formula 1, now we are excited about putting 2 lights on the rear wing.
What has the world come to?

The additional lights are something that has come across from LMPs, the centre light is right in the middle of the wake and spray from the diffuser when running in the wet. The extra lights are much more visible according to the drivers.

I can see why. It certainly helps the driver behind and that can only be a good thing

Well it can't just be tyres, although they would have helped. Their whole package, chassis and engine is on top form
