I love the new Ferrari. It has the best shape to it but I think AMR and Williams right now have the best livery.

Very pointy nose nobody else has done that so far, really going to be a mixed up grid for a while, I wonder if they will gravitate towards one solution certainly not so far.

I agree, it is my favorite so far.

The black parts are exposed carbon fiber.

Looks great in the video up on Ferrari YT channel.

Well that nose is interesting....

Side pods aren't as bad as I thought, the channeling is on the top. Very clever, but we will see.


We will see what Merc launches tomorrow, could be good, could be bad.

Besides the rims and the flap going over the inside of the front wheels I like these new cars, more simplistic and flow design. The air pods look a bit small though, hopefully there won’t be engine cooling issues.

I just saw Ferrari's race suits.... You guys thought the McLaren was bad, imo the Ferrari race suit is pretty ugly.

The car isn't that bad the more I look at it, it's just that skinny nose and the slight curve in it is really ugly imo. The rest is fine.

Wheels are a spec item think they are supplied by BBS to the entire field, no team has anything different now. They might add a set of LEDs to show into or adverts or places in time, let tried it at the last test after Abu Dhabi.

It wasn’t easy to see in the original post but they have gone for a concave sidepod. Looks like, the air is going to enter into the front and some is going to the rads and the rest straight to the back towards the rear of the car. Very new and fresh, will look more obvious when we see it moving.

Very innovative of Ferrari, real real shame the fans don’t have RB to compare yet and I hope Merc show most of their car tomorrow. Going to be a very interesting season.

Anyone in Spain fancy jumping the fence at Barcelona at test 1 and streaming it for us?

Yeah Ferrari does have a cool concept, using those channel to direct the hot radiator exhaust over the beam wing and energizing it to try and create more down force.


I hope mercedes shows something cool as well.

This shot shows the radical approach they have gone for compared to everyone else so far.

Looks a very interesting car, just not keen on the colour scheme it’s a bit meh.

AMR did the same thing but they favored the under cut approach to push the air on top of the diffuser. So they rely on the louvers to properly direct the hot radiator air between the beam wing and top wing element. Ferrari is using this channel to direct the air manually between the beam wing and top element. I am curious as to which approach works best.


Meanwhile redbull sitting on the side lines copying all the best ideas lol.

It's growing on me. I don't like the black wings and was hoping for a return to gloss red. It's still kinda flat.
