I wonder if Cowell coming in has put a lid on the team as there have been very few leaks this offseason. Or it could be that there just isnt much to report.
I guess everyone in the team knows quite well now how it feels when an update doesn't bring the lap time the simulations predicted. Every team seems to be very cautious with predictions or statements, except Ferrari. But it wouldn't be the first time the italian hype train goes off the rails...

Even the unofficial leaks seem to be low, not just public statements. Sometimes anonymous sources and rumors and sometimes people like De la Rosa talking unofficially to Spanish journalists that would get reported.
I read that Lobato will be present at the Barhain tests, as in 2023 unlike in 2024. So this could already mean something. But the most important thing is Sunday If the car is fast, it will also have some interesting aesthetic solutions, remember in 2023 with that deep belly, we all thought it was incredible. Last year instead other than the floating sidepods it didn't feel like anything out of the ordinary. So yeah the day after tomorrow is going to be an interesting day

Has anyone really noticed how the London car is different from amr24 and even amr23? But it doesn't look like a show car though
It's the 24 car with a modified inlet
Actually even the sidepods are different, if it was amr25 I would be disappointed obviously. However Blandin aerodynamic technical director I'm happy, when he spoke he always said interesting things and in August 2022 I remember he had already talked about the grey areas of amr23 and probably he had a significant impact on that

It was the same car as in the 2024 launch, I believe, with new livery

Austin AMR24 spec. Please, stop the nonsense.... We'll know in a few days whether it changed substantially or not from the 2024 shape. The inlet being closed and painted over perhaps is a clue but it's old parts.

My guess is they will switch to overbite sidepods and front pull rods, we will see.

Come on, I never said it was amr25, I said it was different from the amr24. Anyway now that you posted the pictures, it's clearly visible that it's the same car, with the vents closed. There was even an article that said it was amr25 ahaha

I shouldn't be but it always surprises me how different a car looks in different lighting. Slightly different angle of view will enhance or hide lines.

Remember who we are in this forum and who has been here in the worst moments, together. Because it's easy to get on the bandwagon when everything is going well then👀
Please, none of this personal BS. And no gatekeeping. If you want a fan forum, find one. This ain’t it.
I just took Sherrinford's comments to mean that if and when AM F1 start doing well, we'll see a bunch of trolls arrive here. It happens every time. So I wouldn't be surprised for it to happen again.
