You guys absolutely have a lot of time to waste discussing about AGE vs Performance. Go and tell this to Carlos Sainz Sr who still obliterate almost everyone else on off track. I know F1 is not rally, but in terms of physical/mental preparation it's worse than F1.

I'm really happy that this team is still a very likeable team even after levelling up and becoming a car company

The Front suspension looks like RBR with the top bar arched like a bow. The Upper and lower A arms are staggered (The front arm is higher up.)

British AF! :lol:

I like that the livery has stayed the same, it is a great looking livery and glad to see somebody still using gloss paint on the grid.

Would not be surprised with P4 in WCC in the end
Big call!

As an old Jordan fan, I would be happy to see that indeed!

I am in the aero industry and one thing stuck with me from a few years back. Where i was working at a German manufacturers motorsport Dep, the head aero (who held a senior aero position at RB in Sebs dominant period) told me that if you really want to learn Aerodynamics, go to RB and work under Dan Fallows. Backed up by how desperately RB wanted to hold onto Fallows as compared to Prodromou, I believe this guy is no slouch and his confidence at the launch does seem to suggest they know what they're doing this year.
:shock: =D>

First car properly designed under Fallows, former head of RB aerodynamics with strong "know-how" + this year's stronger Mercedes engine + Alonso behind the wheel + rumours of great numbers in the wind tunnel...

I know every team is a future winning contender before the season begins :P but this actually looks really promising. Especially considering how much progress they made in 2022 season.

Don't give me false hope. Let the cards fall as they may.....and may Fernando Alonso deliver us from evil (no I don't mean Verstappen :lol:).

Christian Horner is also fascinated by AMR23 wind tunnel numbers.....All I am hoping for is a few podiums & solid development as the team settles into the new facility.

If they can nip at the heels of Mercedes, that would be a solid winter's work.

If car is capable of podiums trust alonso he will fight for championship. All he needs smell of blood and its guranteed killing. I hope he gets 1-2 chances to fight for championship beforing walking into sunset.

For the first few races I will be very happy if the car is a regular q3 contender. Podiums and wins are unrealistic at this stage. let's hope for a good aero baseline and good correlation. That will set the foundation for a good productive upgrade path as well as next year's car

By the way, Alonso is playing it down by saying we are not expecting too much this year & need to be realistic.
Not sure if that's real emotion or if he is excited inside & just playing a mind game :D :D

Can't wait for testing next week to get some indication of car performance.
