Discussion
Tazar said:
We’re coming into a new season with so many suggestions as to how things may be changed. Salaries come into discussion so why don’t we have a maximum salary for a F1 driver from his or her team including sponsors deals and then they can make up their salary from other championship races, ie. Indy, Le Mans, BYCV, etc.
Graham Hill and Jim Clarke had to, so why not Lewis ?
Thanks Tazar, although we're aiming for a slightly anorak/nerdy 2021 new car discussion here Graham Hill and Jim Clarke had to, so why not Lewis ?

Don’t think so, same papaya orange with maybe a few more sponsors.
Expecting a whole new back end though.
A back end that looks remarkably similar to last year’s Mercedes, by any chance? Expecting a whole new back end though.
They apparently spent tens of millions on that horizontal rear suspension last year, I’d be amazed if McLaren, Williams and Racing Point don’t all have a version of it on the ‘21 car.

It is a shame that they have to have the massive floor on the ground plane and can't make the floor the same size as the body. I know what you mean though. Racing cars used to look a lot prettier than they do now.

New gearbox, engine, front aero. Bigger changes than we thought.

Livery looks really smart. I like how they always manage to freshen it up a little without losing the identity of previous designs.
Anyone know what the two bulges are in the engine shroud? Looks unusual.
Changes made to the PU require it, i suspect it's to give clearance to a change in exhaust routing and turbine design.Anyone know what the two bulges are in the engine shroud? Looks unusual.

Damn that Williams is devoid of sponsors, what on earth is going wrong there?
Delayed reaction due to the results for the last several years? They did come last again last season...Also, is it fair to say the team is simply a little less special/interesting now the family connection is gone?
But that paint job is minging.
