Maybe the pink paint isn't dry yet

Also noted that the aston launch is the day after Mercedes - so they have a final 24 hours to make last minute changes just in case the copy isn't perfect

Genuine question why do people watch a car launch?

What are you expecting to see?

It's not like next year where it will be a noticeable difference from the current generation.

I just imagine they will be the usual pr bullst

Not exactly got a chocca diary at the moment.

Those wheels will be a b!tch to keep clean

Looks like they have done more around the floor/rear tyre than Mclaren, although its pointless comparing until testing. Classic colour scheme though, looks good.

Along with a weird launch vid

I know it's the livery/ photo angle but that car looks soooooo long!

[Deesee]

Best looking car on the grid!

That thing will never get round Monaco!

Saw this photo of the launch



They look like two teenagers who have been caught smuggling something in to their room, and hoping that their parents don't notice the duvet.

I like the colour scheme.

Some interesting features on that, the step from the nose to the front wing and the area around barge boards and ahead of the sidepod. Will be interesting to see if it's all still there at the first race, I wonder if we'll see similar features on the red bull.

I also agree, thats the best looking 2021 car unless someone comes up with something pretty special.

We've only seen two of the 21' cars

Although I do agree it looks great, definitely above average.

Not car related, but Yuki Tsunoda, the little guy's a comedian

Seems like no pink Haas for this year then, pink Williams anyone?

Few leaks of the Alfa out there now.

The Alfa has been released this morning.

I like the livery. The reversal of the red and white on the rear of the car is nice.

Man, these pretentious, overdramatic F1 launches for a car that is basically the same as last year.

I can' help but feel these are more for the sponsors, PR and marketing team to justify their expenditure.

I would troll everyone with really stupid things on the car that are clearly a disadvantage just to throw my competitors off. Like some big ugly extra wing on the wing but upside down.

Something to make the other teams go st did we miss something.
