Are the filming days on special tyres? Would they get any useful downforce data? Probably not. I'd guess its not the real front wing too.

The Mclaren looks nice. Really hope they can do better this year but still think they will miss having an experienced driver like Alonso around.

The Alfa certainly looks different but Id say the livery is not there final livery and that front wing is quite unusual.

Jordan 199

Close-up of the front wing on the Alfa:

These cars are just works of art

I see they changed the Mission Winnow to grey/black likely to get around the link to Marlboro and current investigations.

Interesting position of the mirrors but if they lose the bodywork piece they are attached to the mirror is gone as well. EDIT: It’s attached separately to the main bodywork as well hard to see in that picture but the other attachment could still result in a lost mirror just not as likely as I first thought.

That Mission Winnow logo was atrocious last year. In black it is only look marginally better. Other than that red and black is a nice look.

Ferrari have copied the McLaren nose from last year?

Some pics of the new Toro Rosso from their filiming day:

Looks like the paint is a matte finish.

You can actually see the Honda name on their car!

Channel 4 highlights will remain more or less the same. Ben Edwards and David Coulthard in the box with Lee McKenzie in the paddock. Steve Jones remains as anchor and Mark Webber and Eddie Jordan are staying as pundits. Billy Monger also joins the team but I doubt it'll be as Karun Chandoks replacement. No word as to who that is.

Will they be showing any of the races live?

Charlie-Bravo

That is so much better. Williams first failure of the year - their initial presentation. The lighting did nothing for the car!!

The British GP is the only live race on channel 4.

Sky have the whole thing wrapped up until the end of 2024.

The British Grand Prix is probably the only race that will escape Sky’s exclusivity in that time

I think lots if not all cars are matte this year. I think it looks cool but apparently red bull found some small aero advantage last year

It looks much less like a toothpaste tube now!

I think it looks good. And it will be distinctive on the grid. Considering they’re one of the few (2?) teams that have a new livery, I think it’s good.

Jordan 199

Some front view pics of the top three teams:

Mercedes:

Red Bull:

I like the triangle shape airbox on the Ferrari.

Won't be showing F1 this year. Sky bought out their Irish contract.

I'm looking forward to seeing the cars testing in natural light next week.

I never take testing times seriously.

Why would anyone expect anything different?

ayux4rj6zql2ph

Ferrari playing the long game with LeClerc possibly.

Support Vettel now, once he’s eventually ousted then bring in someone else as number 2 to LeClerc

At 21 I expect he will be in a Ferrari for at least the next 10 years unless he has the opportunity to do a “Hamilton” elsewhere.

mickdw

Ya but if leclerc can start to out qualify him, they will soon enough throw their full weight behind him.
