Haas VF-24

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.

Is it me, or does it look seriously alike that Andretti windtunnel model?
off the top of my head
Doesn't have the sidepod crease, the lip is shorter, different airbox, different central cooling shoulders, shorter canon exit
Yes, indeed, very different. Seen the Andretti on my phone and didn't quite make out the details.

Further discussion and help from @scuderiabrandon and there are clear differences between the VF-24 COTA spec front wing and the rendered FW. Similar but seems like an evolution. Could feasibly be the real VF-24 FW

Thanks.
Does it go more towards Red Bull wing concept as Formu1auno speculated (with the SF-24 having a more evolved one than Haas)?

Grabbed a few stills out the little video above.

Looks very RB-esque with sidepod inlets.

Looks just as bulky as the renders. Might have added some centre-line cooling.

It's missing the shark fin and the front suspension is different but other than that it looks like the renders were pretty accurate.

Unique dive plane, trying to shed two vortices?

Definitely push at the front. Rear is a little harder to see but looks like pull.

Okay, unlike previous seasons, the renders did show the actual launch car... Lots of room for improvement on the top-side bodywork feels like a lot things can and should be tighter.
And they call it a stall. A STALL!

Looks like a VCARB style kick-out

Engine air intake expanded v last year, with supplementary channels to either side of primary. Looks like feeding more centre line cooling / flow facility.

Is this balance consequence of reduction in lower sidepod volume in facilitating that aero preference?

Likely Ferrari too as last year airbox architecture looked mirrored between the two.
