It's a very nice shade of blue and the textured effect is really cool. Really throws right back to the 2010/2011 car in terms of overall tone.

Also, there definitely seems to be more than a hint of the real car here as well, it's very different to the show car model and whilst I have no doubts that it will be very different come Australia, it's still far enough from the show car that it's more than just a livery showcase.

I also like how the shaping of the front wing looks like it came straight from the RB1.
 
Looks like Hamilton is finally getting a new engineer next year....that was a season too late!! Hopefully the next one makes the difference because from the radio messages I've heard between Adami and Hamilton, it's was just absolutely pathetic.

That aside, the Red Bull livery looks quite nice. They did an awesome work with that. I can't wait to see how the season shakes up with the new regulations.

"Lets put one of the worst communicators on the radio to the drivers in a leadership position that also requires communication"

The clown show never stops.
 
The new Red Bull livery sure looks familiar.

I do quite like it, actually.

It's a bit tame for my liking, especially when you consider the GR rally and Touring cars. It'll be nice to have more bright cars on the track rather than swathes of carbon (notice how since the rule changes we're actually getting colourful cars), but this could've been much more interesting.
 
So far, I think the actual car designs for this regulation are looking pretty good. I find myself liking them a lot more than what we were getting for the last set of regulations. Keep them coming....can't wait to see the rest of the grid.

Yikes, look at the size of those front tyres... I guess the graphics team doing the rendering accidentally used the same tyres on all corners?

Do the tyres on the RB on track, and the on the Cadillac test car look to be considerably lower profile than previous years?

They all look pretty promising and a nice change. So glad they didn't postpone these regs and glad they are done with the modern ground effects disaster regs.
 

As it happens, Honda is worried about its internal combustion engine, admitting that its development is “not necessarily” going as expected.


“The electrification side is progressing as planned. However, that is not necessarily the case for the internal combustion engine," Tetsushi Kakuda, Honda’s F1 project leader, told Autosport.

poor Nando - this was his final hope
 
No numbers on the sides of the HAAS.

Anyways, I think what's hilarious is how HAAS is stuck as TGR HAAS when, and I could be completely wrong, Toyota just underwent another round of renaming their racing division for NO reason (kidding; it's because they want GR as its own brand).

Not just the Haas F1 team but this WRC, W2RC, Super GT and Super Formula will all run as TGR. Just the WEC and NASCAR programs that switch to Toyota Racing.

Spanish drivers, Japanese engines and modern British F1 teams - they just don't seem to go together well, do they?

Obviously, this is on the condition that the reporting was representative of reality, and that Honda failed to resolve the issues with combustion engine development as season begins, but this would mark a little bit more than 10 years since Alonso reached peak frustration in F1, and it's something I'd hate to see repeat again. :indiff:
 
The livestream of Audi's F1 reveal has just started (they haven't shown the car yet, it's the usual PR BS so far):
