More cooling, slightly different FW, New RW, can't see much more right now.

Rear wing!. Very different from anything last year. Evolution of last year.

To me it looks identical to the one they launched their livery on a few weeks back

Floor is not real, just a flat edge, clearly saving that for later. Id expect a completely different car to hit the track.

Agree. These reveals are purely sponsor pleasing events nowadays. Not sure why people make such critical judgments on them.

Just a fan's point of view

Yes, i'd expect them to have a version of the underbite sidepod inlets on the real car

I think its the only reason they'd hide it. The car is a frankenstein of spare parts to me.

One's a fancy render and another seems to be a Frankenstein car, have to wait for the on track pictures! Time to pixel peep when those pictures show up!

It's not, the upper element is totally separate. Livery DRS Flap was flowing down the sides.

It may still be a wing from last year, but it isn't the livery wing.
The front wing is from the Livery release, however.

Looks like it may well still be the MCL60 at this point. It's not the real car for sure I hope.

I don’t know what I expected but it wasn’t this. If it wasn’t obvious that this is a new chassis you would be forgiven for thinking this is just the MCL60 with new wings.

There is a car thread people, it's meant to be used for all technical car-related discussions. The idea is to have all those technical posts and photos all in one thread for one car, it's an F1 Technical forum after all.

And they call it a stall. A STALL!
