Renault Sport F1 R.S. 18

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.

nice clear shot. still no fairings on the halo. looks skinnier than the rest though, but that could be the colour.

i was actually looking 'where are the mirrors' lol, they almost disappeared.

sidepod looks nteresting with that verticle carbon 'seperation'. - or is that reflection from the sidepod in the high-gloss black? im getting confused.

Tricky to find those mirrors indeed, and their supports (i actually looked for attachments to the halo, don't know if that would be legal).

It seems the made a "last minute" (or close to it) adaption to the bottom of the side pot, new carbon where it meets the monoque I think indicates this.

And it seems to have big vanes just under the floors leading edge, like the Merc or RB ones, only bigger.
