Easily the smallest airbox as well. Must be real confident in their cooling.

Edit: Dat rake though.

Shark fin, thumb nose and whale tail combo:

I love how everyone has the appropriate facial expression.

 

[DrM]

I love how everyone has the appropriate facial expression.

I have a feeling that one of the guys on the left will be sacked during the season

 

[Hammer24]

Uuuuuuh

I have the feeling somebody in Marranello is currently making one out of paper mache before the launch of the car.

You are a prophet.

 

[Zeknurn]

That's a lot of rake.

Also I didn't notice the t-wing on top of the sharkfin at first. The 3D printer must have worked all night to make it in time.

 

[DBT85]

That's a ton of rake. Car doesn't look as long as the Merc though.

Seems to be a blown front axle, which Merc still haven't done either.

Interesting angular sidepod openings and nice to see they found the loophole at least.

Spoiler

It's just a bit of a kellogs box sprayed white and balanced on there.

Live Kimis arms in that photo. Does he work for Bungie at all?

 

[DrM]

Tuning vane is developed in a way to channel air through the sidepod

And yes, they went for a shorter wheelbase compared to Mercedes. But we will have to wait till testing for comparison pictures

I don't know why you're saying that. Look at them again!

The body language.
The expression on their faces.

That's how people who are confident in their work look like. What's what winning looks like!

I genuinely laughed when I saw that Ferrari.

Oh dear.

 

[chadskin]

That looks rather hot.

 

[brotkasten]

That looks rather hot.

If it wasn't for the thumb nose, sure.

 

[DrM]

If it wasn't for the thumb nose, sure.

Thumb nose will be gone when B-spec car arrives after summer's break

 

[jey_16]

i feel like the more i look at it, the more i like it (apart from the nose)

looks like they got the S-Duct

 

[brotkasten]

Thumb nose will be gone when B-spec car arrives after summer's break

So never then, alright.

 

[DBT85]

Thumb nose will be gone when B-spec car arrives after summer's break

Nobody has managed to match the Merc nose and they've had it for 2 years, even the W05 nose was mush shorter than anyone elses.

Either the teams have given up trying to make it pass the crash tests, or they feel the gains from it aren't enough to bother.

 

[kharma45]

That Ferrari is ugly af.

 

[Development]

That merc looks so cool in action

 

[Zeknurn]

@ScarbsTech
Yikes! undercut sidepod/floor very impressive detail from Ferrari #SF70H #F1

I bet that detail won't last long.

 

[DrM]

Didn't they had the big undercut also on last year's car?

 

[xrnzaaas]

They look very confident in that group photo. XD

 

[NHale]

The Ferrari car is so bad that even the wheels start clipping the ground.

 

[brotkasten]

They look very confident in that group photo. XD

They're already tired of winning.

 

[Zeknurn]

That sidepod vane is striking to say the least.

 

[Psychotext]

I really hope they've accidentally created a good car there.

 

[brotkasten]

I can't wait for the tests to start on Monday. God, this is exciting. F1 is back, guys.

 

[Scotch]

It looks fine tbh.

 

[Zeknurn]

Renault is in Barcelona for their filming day and they brought this nice looking car.

It's not that different from their 2017 car and should make a nice video.

Saving this for when reality sinks in after seeing the timing sheets on Monday.

I've been wondering if Mercedes is going to conduct all tests on the hard tyre this year. You know, just because they can.

 

[Aiii]

Ark, you making the 2017 thread soon?

 

[DBT85]

Testing is testing. The only thing to really pay attention to is reliability, as you can't be fake good.

 

[Hammer24]

The question is, how they get all the sandbags in the smaller car.

 

[Theorry]

Ferrari on track.

Now with video.

[DBT85]

Can someone explain the point of chat window in these streams, you can't talk about anything as its a thousand messages a minute. It's basically just lots of people talking bollocks all at once.

Where's that quote from Bernie about nobody wanting HD? lol

 

[Jezbollah]

480p. I LOL'd hard.

Sky Go for me then

 

[Theorry]

Room like a Senate chamber

 

[DBT85]

Oh wow, lazenby. Stoop lower.

 

[Zeknurn]

Why does it look like a cult gathering?

 

[Aiii]

Oh wow, lazenby. Stoop lower.

Hey, good on him for making some money on the side.

 

[Zeknurn]

Why are they showing a Marussia?

 

[Mastah]

Well, that's not what I expected.

 

[DBT85]

It's a Manor?

All those sponsors too.

Hey, good on him for making some money on the side.

I'm talking about them using him, not him working for them.

 

[chadskin]

It's a Marussia!

So I got Now TV, and I didn't realize you could only register four devices at a time, so it registered my Chromecast, iPhone, iPad and home browser. So I deleted three of them so I could add my Apple TV and work browser.

Turns out that once you remove a device, you can only add one new one EVERY MONTH. So now I can't use it at work until the months over. I'm lucky I found this out before March, or I'd still have been screwed.
