It appears that starting with the Chinese GP that mirrors will not be allowed on the sidepods any longer. I guess the powers that be have a better understanding of the drivers safety issues than the drivers do .

| I believe they can still have mirrors, its just that they can not have them mounted on the extreme ends of the sidepods. Having them mounted on the drivers cowl should be OK though, although not much good. |

They are moving the mirrors in board more because the drivers were complaining they couldn't use the ones they have now. Although after watching Hamilton make at least 5 defensive moves into one corner to keep the Renault behind him, I guess his work just fine where they are. |
