Williams FW36 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.

I'm a bit surprised no other teams went with the low beam wing. Surely the other teams thought of it.
Honda!

STR did.

Here's the best shot of the undercut you'll find, I'll stop talking about it now. (Right click, view image)

For some reason I can't see many of the pictures from that formel1.nl site. Is it only me?

Yeah, my bad. Anyway, I can't see pictures in the thread and if I right click I get "there is a mistake in the image" message. Also, if I go to the original site I can zoom only some of the pictures.

Do ctrl+f5 to perform a hard refresh on one of the images. Can't think of why it wont work unless you are on mobile.

is just my impression or this car looks very cheap? There's a big lack of sponsors and RW looks simply with just a pipe. Also FW an Interesting blades. The rear end looks like 2013... big gap between wing and engine cover

Design is smooth and probably the best design with a this kind of nose.

last years testing were with full commercials on their car... this year (and some previous) on testing they use dark blue color.
