Mercedes AMG F1 W03

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Did they have the connecting link between the sidepod and the vane last year as well?

This actually still looks like a 2 element front wing(launch version), with a massive slit in it (see the 1st silver element) I might be wrong... :?:

Finally us Merc fans get what we want, a finished looking car unlike last year's car which looked like it had been put together with glue. Best of all, NO GILLS!!!

Launch-spec front wings are rarely raced. With that in mind, I can't imagine what they're planning to use in Australia. Those "endplates" are quite right, if I do say so myself.

This is the first Mercedes that doesn't look like it was designed and built two or three weeks prior to being unveiled.

Really is a thin looking machine - we should nickname it "the Moss", especially with all the "blow" going through it's nose.

That probably would be in poor taste though.
