Williams FW37 Mercedes

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.

In 2011 it was crap everywhere, 2012 was the one that was a demon on street circuits, tight corners and low grip tarmac in general, Maldonado putting it in the top 3 of qualifying a number of times.
That is right, my mistake.

I thinks this is a transportation nose. Just like McLaren last year.

The mclaren nose is not a transportation nose!! It got damaged in a pitstop.
The cheapest sort of pride is national pride, every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.

Is that supposed to be a joke or am I missing something about this "transportation" nose stuff?

It certainly doesn't look like the nose they use currently. The current nose is rather square fronted, whilst that is rounded, not unlike the FW36. I wouldn't be surprised if that is what it was, I expect there to be an FW36 going with them to Hungary to be displayed somewhere

This is last years nose without the tip, and last years front wing also.

Not an upgrade, it's just a 'dummy' nose (2014 spec) for pitstop practice. https://twitter.com/WilliamsRacing/stat ... 8736543746 Lotus have done the same with Austin 2014 spec. https://twitter.com/Lotus_F1Team/status ... 5239716864

It's A show car (but not that one).

However what mixture by Satan is the car above? A 2013 chassis (monocoque and sidepods) with a 2014 nose tip??

Looks like it goes further! I think it's a 2013 nose made to look like a 2014 nose.

Are you sure you ment the 2013 nose? Thats one of the worst starting points if they wanted to do a 2014 nose
