IMHO, besides the nose, It doesn't look like an "all new" car...
The W05 picture is from Feb/2014, in Bahrain, I think.

I am wondering is it allowed to have so much speed on this "test"!?

I don't know who owns this video...

Doesn't look too different from the W05. A subtle Evolution methinks. Note that this is not a negative thing seeing the Performance of the W05.

Sure but there is no way of knowing how better our rivals will be, so I would expect something more than a simple evolution, based on some comments Paddy if I recall saying that they carried over few parts to the WO6.

Still, let's wait and see, it might just be a different car in the first race.

Hmm.. I still wonder if it is a W05-B... it is so similar... I mean yeah it is a new chassis for sure the "W0-6" but again wow. It is a good when the DNA of a champion is carried forward like whay happened at RedBull. Lets hope for four years of Mercedes domination too!

I'm sure a lot has changed compared to the W05, but they didn't need to reinvent their Philosophy, so the similar Look doesn't surprise me. They weren't in a situation as McLaren , the 4/30 is sooo radically different from the 4/29 because it was needed.

Is it just me or are there vortex generators on top of a full length airflow condition?

Merc mechanics don't make great actors, do they?

I actually think the car is very different if u look closely. im not talking about radical changes just in the evolution sense. The sidepods, engine cover and airbox are completely different

[SiLo]

Lower suspension arms at the front have been raised slightly. Has anyone seen any geometry changes at the back?

How are the camera pods legal?
