    I hope for their sake this is just a dumbed-down launch spec car. I love the paint scheme, but the details do not impress me compared to the Red Bull (impressive!) and Mercedes (nice evolution of W08 but not quite the Red Bull level of innovation). Ferrari did a nice job with those sidepod intakes though.

    You serious? The Merc just looks like last year's car. Very uninspired.

    I was really encouraged when I saw it

    Like the Scuderia shield on the HALO, but what's the deal with the rear view mirror, is it finished? I just can't tell because it looks like it's not done with the black part.
    Let's get on track next week and be quick and reliable.

    I don't know much about car specs and capabilities, but it sure looks amazing.

    Yeah W09 is just an evolution for the most part, but the details to the sidepods, rear suspension, innovative barge board area, and amended swept geometry to the front suspension show a lot of conscious thought. The Red Bull takes the cake so far though, that thing looks like a beast.

    Looks like air gets in and is redirected. Great idea? Lots of empty red space on the car. Where is IQOS?

    We'll probably see it in testing or Melbourne.

    As long as it's a winning car, I could care less about the over all looks. (But I do wonder if the halo with interfere with the drivers depth perception.)

    Mercedes sidepods are completely conventional. Weird they didnt copy the superior design from last year (Ferrari)

    It's cause they won't show their hand so much like the other teams and anyway I think Ferrari and Mercedes will be changing it up when testing and actual comes so expect some big changes from now and testing.
