Pics please... are they running the SA06 or the Honda?

johny · Post 17 Jan 2007, 20:04

yes it's ra106

Its not the RA106.

Well, not quite anyway.

It nearly is, but there are subtle differences, the front wing is different, and the airbox inlet is drastically different and...

...erm...thats about it lmao.

Although I don't know what the "Official" statement about it is.

Anyone else noticed the chimneys on the SA being closed?
Seems like a general trend, MP4-22 has much smaller chimneys, R27 dito, TF107 same thing,...
Where's all the heat going? :/

What's the current testing rule btw isn't there an agreement to not test two cars before end of january? Renault and BMW are testing two, while the whole Red Bull collective is missing out.

Or is it that you get 1/2 test days for running 2 cars?

Looks like the result of two cars crashing into each other at warp speed...

Very nice

Overalls are even worse

Bad choice of jacket colour from Flav. I expect better from him.

I guess if the car is fast, who gives a sh#t?

Argh!

As much as I praised the return of the white, yellow & dark scheme (reminds of the Prost & turbo years), I have a big problem with the ugly ING orange, which is a bit too much. Now the car seems saturated with too much colours. It would be sooo much better with just the white/yellow/dark...

I guess I will need some time to accoutumate myself with this new livery. The interim livery was superb, it had the class of last year Williams.

eh, that's life...

Welcome To F1's Ugly Season!

Its looks like there got bored at a point and just used last years livery design on bits. Its a Great car, but the livery is Abit ugly in my book. Also the Overalls are almost as bad as the Mclaren ones.

They should of used one of manchilds designs.

It looks terrible... the McLaren is by far the best looking car on the grid so far. I am still waiting to see what the Honda and RB3 will look like, I have high hopes
