    McLaren looks like last years redbull, but with the aero turned down from ‘amazing’ to ‘utterly useless’.

    Alfa's new front wing concept is the most innovative on the grid. We'll see if that concept works.

    McLaren's barge board concept looks interesting. High hopes for them.

    The Alfa is wearing a "disguise wrap" featuring hearts (Valentines day) and clover leafs.
    Proper reveal Monday I believe.

    Sounds pretty good too on the Fiorano videos

    It's not their final livery.
    Yup, the trucks (2019) outside the test track had the white/maroon livery.

    These new front wings are so useless that Alfa decided to cut them off completely in front of the tyres?

    My guess is they are going to test the outwash effect this configuration has and compare it to a more traditional arrangement I'm sure they have built as well. The outwash effect lost this year is considerable

    No real beauties in the group...let's just hope they are faster. My big wish is that it is anyone but Hamilton and Vettel fighting for the title.

    They claimed they have a radical car to bring them to the front...it looked extremely conventional to me, with a **** livery.

    Alfa has the most exciting front end (mainly the wing). Red Bull aggressive rear end.

    IF Saubers concept works, it would be very interesting to see if other teams could indeed copy it or if Sauber has the car designed around it and retains an edge? Ferrari tomorrow...

    I just noticed they dropped the McLaren Project 4 from their car naming. Shows how much I have been paying attention to them. MCL sounds kind of dumb.

    Hmmm stand outs for me so far are the RB15 and MCL, contrary to what some have said about the Mac, the front wing to lower barge board areas are pretty unique conceptually.

    Merc has an inwash endplate for their front wing which was interesting...conventional thinking would dictate outwash instead so curious to see how this redirection of air inboard and over the tires works for them.

    Not sure why ppl are raving over the sauber’s front end...it’s pretty much a copy of McLaren’s w a slight variation in size of nostrils...

    Great way to launch the car ,on the track, whereas Macca produce some dumb looking presentation,with the boss talking the usual marketing rubbish.

    looks like an evolution of last year.

    I have to say the Red Bull looks the most exciting car of all, followed by Alfa.
