Looks like an STR8 to me.

Right i see now...
This picture is not 2014. Look at this video from 2013 "Scuderia Toro Rosso factory tour" 3:35 min http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lpu4QPplW3Y

'13 car

Isn't that just a crappy fia tub being used to test a genuine front crash structure? I don't think the actual tub is used when just testing the nose assembly, pretty sure thus just a test slave.

perhaps it could, but that doesn't alter the fact it's still last year's vidcap, with the same nose that gets crashed.
so either way it's old material and not the STR9

Its actually an STR7 as its got a 2012 stepped nose. That image was from the teams factory tour video.

The car had a step last year aswell seeing as the vanity panel doesnt need to be crash tested and this year aswell will have a step but as you say it is 2012 cause its from the tour video.

Nice, 2014 F1 cars already running on track?

They were at Misano with both drivers.

I take it the filmingday hashtag is mandated by the Sporting Regs?

so JEV seems to be able to tell the appendage is 'goodlooking'

do wonder about this car and how it will differ in looks from the RedBull
