    The new Ferrari. If it is as fast as it is pretty / decent looking, they will get sod all
    Points imho.

    I know cars don't have to be good to look at, but ffs there are limits ........

    I don't get it. Look at how curvy and sexy the Williams is. And then Ferrari build a shed. Come on Ferrari, you're Ferrari, make us swoon.

    I predict a paper jam at some point.
    the proof of the pudding is in the eating, the Ferrari doesn't look as sleek, but it looks more aerodynamically evolved.

    The last couple of years generally speaking the red bull and Mercedes have been the better looking cars of the bunch. Been a while since a bad looker of the season has been near the front, maybe it does matter?

    Didn't realise until today but Brundle has been slating the cars on Twitter.

    He's normally very positive these days (for Sky) but he only likes the Merc!

    Little glimpse. Finally some cornering speed akin to an F1 car!

    Love it.

    Watched Bahrain 2015 last night on Sky F1. I then remembered how utterly terrible the racing has been for three whole years. At least when the cars are on the limit there is something to enjoy even if there is dominance. 2014-2016 with fuel and tyre saving was the worst.

    Its ugly.

    In fairness ferrari have regularly produced ugly cars.

    The paint job on the fin makes it look totally slapped on. Fix that and it might improve a bit.

    Agreed. Shark fins are pointless annoyance especially if like Williams you paint the damn thing like that.

    I really don't get how the best car on grid doesn't need a droopy knob on the front but the rest desperately desire some tiny amount to of air that apparently blows by it.

    Patently the rules should be rewritten to eliminate them

    Mercedes have a promo video on the sky sports App.

    Too much talking after about a min but they did a bit of a nice chase car type thing ala top gear and you can see shots along the body and the triple barge boards stuff really close so it's very nice.
