Interesting little step on the suspension arm thingmys. I see theyve kept the rear wheel covers too. Looks cool, i want to see the new honda car, rumours are its going to be painted green and possibly a change of colour for mclaren too.
McLaren I think will have vodaphone as a main sponsor so mainly red as well.

Im nt sure itll be anymore red than last year, they had a fair bit of red bits to prepare for vodafones entry, but they might go the whole hog and change it completely to mark a new start?

With Mercedes owning 40% of the company and being the source of the most funding?

They did it last year in the DTM with their champions car.
Edited to say "last year" not "this year"

The last 'proper' red F1 Ferrari IMO, the 1995 412 T2. The last V12 car too.
Ah, nice gratuitous 412 T2 pic. I've never been a Ferrari fan, but god that '95 car was gorgeous.
Made a
noise aswell. Silverstone 1995. Coming through Whittlebury village on the way in you could hear Alesi and Berger giving it full beans down Hangar Straight in practice before you even got to the car park. Great days.
Back on topic - Ferraris should be blood red. That's not Marlboro red IINM but it's certainly not Ferrari red...

I doubt they will but it was a rumour I heard somewhere. They probably wouldnt go for a full red car, (although it would be funny if they painted it the proper ferrari red just to get up their noses) but they might ditch the super shiny look.

Which if it was on any other car would be illegal as it is obviously like that for aero, and being suspension means it will move, and moving aero parts are not allowed!

Simple. Stunning. New Ferraris just dont carry the heritage. Which is a shame.
Ferraris that look like that one didn't win world championships. Would the Tifosi prefer a "pretty" car at the back of the field or an "ugly" car at the front?

I think the '96 car was the most wilfully ugly POS ever to grace F1. By that standard all the subsequent cars have been lookers!
You are kidding? What about the Tyrrell P34:
Or the March 711/6?!
Or the Williams FW26:
