Just cause they can put in on vid doesnt mean it is race ready and available

I tweeted that. Ross Brawn mentioned it during a Sky interview after the verdict.

I remember someone among Brawn, Wolff or Lauda saying they planned a continuous upgrade during the season, by small steps, not some big steps every X races

It was a small joke .

On topic: I believe this is the first year they actually succeeded up until this point to keep up with the development race. The Canadian upgrades weren't as big as the ones on red bull or ferrari, but still impressive to say the least. Hopefully the coming updates tackle the tyre issues a bit.

Notice the tweaked livery (black head-guard). I wonder if this is just on the exhibition car or if we'll see this on the W04 at Silverstone.

Hasn't that been there the whole 2013?

For example, see Melbourne:

It looks like W02. Also, I see the number 10 and the sidepods design is little different.

Now I'm scratching my head. Those photos definitely make it look black, but when I've seen the head guard all on its own in the garage it's looked silver. Maybe I'm hallucinating. Since 2010 I've though the car would look better with black highlights instead of the Petronas teal, so I'll be doubly surprised if I missed some finally showing up on the car.

It has been black since the launch

I think you're remembering hw the headrest was in 2012.
