    Nasty. I thought the dick-nose was gone for 2015?

    Alas, I wish this were the 2015 Noise thread... but I guess no progress in that department.

    Ugh!

    I think that the new rules were made to prevent the noses but it seems that they only managed to make them smaller.

    I caught the Williams car a few days ago. That's a sexy machine.

    Nose is "meh" and I'm sure the noise will be "meh"

    Claims of a push rod suspension (yep, byebye pull rod!), new placement of radiators, new sidepods and bigger turbine/compressor unit. Ditching pull rod is huge!

    The slant just ruins it for me. I liked the 2013 car with the straight nose and drop supports holding the wing. This is not an improvement.

    given the short nose seen on the W06 I wonder if McLaren isn't bluffing with their oddly long nose... But then what would be the gain if the got to show their cards on Sunday... From an armchair perspective it seems like an excessively long nose.

    The noses are now so tightly speced, that the main difference one to the other will be the color.
