Looks like they're following a generic trend with the sidepods and engine cover. Is this a calculated conservative design to get the team back on track or are they switching philosphies too soon?

So what if Ross Brawn has some input into the new car?? It wasn't as if he just sat on the pitwall planning pitstops. Surely he'll be tempted at some point to say " Well at Ferrari we ........."
