The pic is very small but at least it’s better than my description... for better images you’ve probably to wait a few hours.

that pic eh... strangely enough I think those are a new type of Bridgestone tyres... the running surface seems to be flatter than before, more like with Michelin... at least I think so, it's a small pic after all

Well the FWEPs have changed, but did the wing itself also change? Please also not the elements that attach the wing to the nose are a little moved to the inside, compared to the F2003-GA (This was already the case during launch btw)

looks quick..
The front wing looks closer to the ground than with other cars for some reason.. Prolly just an impression but it looks like that.

Actually Ferrari introduced the twin flap on the front wing even earlier, in 1997.

i've maked this draw with fotoshop 7.0.

Normaly i study every car, by a gp i check all the cars and searching for new parts. so i know how a car must look like, and than i t is only what is original on the car, so you draw that down, and make some changes like you've studied. first you maken the black lines in fotoshop, than you make new layers whit collors, and dan the sponsors, that 's it.

try, try, try until you can make these draws.

That means nothing.You don't know what they are testing.But I really think bridgestone has a better tire than last year.It will be a close battle. :P
