Sauber C31 Ferrari

[Joie de vivre]

where's the stream???

they are so unorganized, no wonder they can't be better

FW is disaster

[lombers]

From that angle the sidepods look tiny, but the press shot I have seen from the front makes them appear slightly larger.

[Lorenzo_Bandini]

Very very tiny sidepost.

[Tamburello]

They are hoping to fill all that white with sponsorship logos but it seems it just ain't happening...

[Spencifer_Murphy]

Stepped-Nose!

Ok now that that inevitable exclamation of the bleeding obvious has been dealt with, is it just me, or are those sidepods incredibly small?! They look soooo low from that picture!

[Lorenzo_Bandini]

Damn, Ferrari engines doesn't need cooling or what ??

[pluisje]

Hm, is that the thinnest nose so far?

[Forza]

[FrukostScones]

[Tamburello]

Hm, is that the thinnest nose so far?

yeah...finally a proper platypus-nose

[Spencifer_Murphy]

hehehe...i'm sure.

Everyone seem to be launching a dummy car..

From sauber website

“The current plan is to launch a fairly basic roll-out version of the car, which was defined quite some time ago. We will then be testing development parts during the upcoming weeks with a late upgrade for the first race on 18th March in Australia. Therefore the car will look quite different in Melbourne compared to the roll-out car.”

The rear of the car is very compact indeed. It's using a pullrod suspension design, obviously due to the changes Ferrari have made this year.

The front most part of the nose is very thin indeed.
