After following up on the two launches so far, it has got me wonderin.........
McLaren, like many of the other teams, gets all their drivers and test drivers suited up, invites the press, invites all the important people, rolls their car on stage and puts up a little show for their debut.
On the other hand, Ferrari just snaps a few pics in their garage and calls it a "launch". Why is Ferrari so conservative?

Am I the only one bored by Toyota's livery?
its nice to see Toyota keep up with their tradition of copying some of the other manufactures ideas lol
What's with the Bonneville flat-face wheels that are popping up all the sudden?
The wheels are for brake cooling and helping divert air to the rear diffuser.

Take a good look at the F2008's front nose-wing construction. Then look at the TF107's. Who's copying who?
Of course, since the TF107 was such a good car, SIKE. I hope for your sake you were being sarcastic.

That car looks fantastic. However, to me a lot of it seems to represent a McLaren and a Ferrai. The nose and wing for example. It has the same sort of bridge wing idea as the Ferrari F2007 did at the end of last season. The nose cone is similar to the McLaren as it is lower to the ground than before. And the ir intake above the drivers head seems to be two rolled into one. Still, the fact that they were both championship contenders last year makes copying these concepts not a bad idea at all.
You never know when they might need it. Especially after Lewis Hamiltons luck last year during the last 3 races!That thing above the chimney on the Mclaren looks rather weird, as if it's a cross used for praying while they're driving...
I predicted all cars would put their mirrors behind the front wheels. Ferrari did it and now Toyota's joined in.
