Mercedes AMG F1 W04 (pre-launch speculation)

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.

The 2014 Technical Regulations are still at an early stage and have been heavily revised.

Rule 5.8.2 Engine exhaust systems may incorporate no more than two exits ~

Nice spotting and research R_Redding you deserve this +1
If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Ross Brawn: This car has been project led by Aldo (Costa) and he’s done a fantastic job and I’m really excited by that. Like any of us in life if we are excited by what we are doing we carry on doing it.

That's Brawn hinting at his own job.

Its the typical sentence of every season, like the good desires that everybody have for a new year, 100% dream, 0% reality. :)

Anyway, I have a great confidence in Costa´s profesionality.

also, they were only fast in simulator because other teams dont compete there, it's hard to be first, when you are only one on track :roll:

That's a bit harsh. I'm sure they meant they referred to the lap times when testing in the simulator.
