Mercedes AMG F1 W03 (pre-launch speculation)

[Hail22]

I want to see Ferrari Vs Mercedes like the old times...bring it back! bring back the heritage!

I think w03 will be an evolution from w02, like Redbull's car. don't expect a totally different car like f2012 of ferrari. wheelbase will be slightly longer than w02 but not much longer because there is no EBD this year. I expect undercut sidepods but not doublefloor like str7. also front wing should be updated this year because it's too old. also stepped nose like redbull or force india will be waiting for us I think.

It would be a waste of the first morning at least getting in the system checks and installation runs if there isn't a shakedown. Looking forward to some spy shots of the car from Rockingham...

No teaser photos, no big live release.

However its definite day 1 testing at Barcelona the W03 will be released!

Where does it say no teaser photos?

I expect something today.

Common sense, Mercedes are the kings of keeping secrets, remember the old silver arrows they were similar to the Ferrari it will come out a few hours before testing nice and cool in the morning and have a shakedown run before all the ladies arrive (RBR ladies club).

I think this year may prove to be a change of the guard and return to the silver arrows era.

If Formula 1 wants to be exciting Red Bull and the other non car manufacturer companies need to take a back seat while the prestige rules once more (Mclaren, Ferrari, Mercedes, Lotus, Williams...even though they are struggling).

i think it has the ugliest bump!

I know it's only due the way in which the car is obscured, but it looks like Mercedes are going to be fielding an SUV this year.

Where did you get that?!

[Hail22]

I have a feeling its not going to be stepped however they may be making it look like a stepped nose.

Weird that tip of the nose looks exactly like one of the noses used in 2007....was it the F2007 but with a more narrow profile?

From this photo the rear looks pretty slim but it seems like there is no room for a 'radical' exhaust position
