    I like it! Shows some interesting aero concepts particularly around the side pods. Wingtastic!

    Nice to see Aston Martin is very prominent ,although that might change in the final edition.

    I was hoping for more simplicity, but the number of winglets, deflectors, etc...around the sidepods is just disappointing. "Less would have been more".
    Not to say anything about the carbon shards they will leave on the track when colliding with another car.
    Not a fan.

    Tough to see a lot on Red Bull's camo but Craig noticed the sidepods are VERY narrow....great to hear! Newey said last year at Ferrari Launch he didn't understand their sidepods but seemed Ferrari was on to something as so far everyone has copied them. Lets hope Red Bull has a monster of a car ready to pounce on the Germans.

    Ferrari will unveil its 2018 prancing horse Thursday afternoon, and rumors from Italy suggest there could be a color change.

    According to the usually well-informed Corriere della Sera, the Scuderia could revert to a slightly darker tone of red, reminiscent of the color which prevailed on the Italian cars in the 70s.

    Furthermore, historic sponsor Philip Morris, which has ramped up the marketing of its IQOS heated-tobacco product, could underline the brand's presence with a few shades a grey on the Ferrari's livery.

    White zones on the 2018 car's bodywork will likely be reduced to a minimum or disappear altogether following the departure of sponsor Santander.

    According to our infos, the rumours about the new Red Bull RB14 having a little shunt during yesterdays shakedown at Silverstone are true. Damaged frontwing, nose & floor. #AMuS

    and

    Red Bull fans make desperate plea after ‘special’ announcement. They want RedBull to keep the special edition livery per the Dailymail.

    A missed opportunity, but better than the 5 minute blue Krylon job they had before.

    I like the Alfa logos and name on the car at least! Interesting that they have photos of the steering wheel.
