Looking at all the cars we've seen so far, is is safe to say that those cars are what we expect to see on track comes testing or do we think they are going to be vastly different? When I started looking at them earlier in the week, especially with the Red Bull launch, I just thought they are just going to show up off their livery and not so much the actual cars.

But seen the Mercedes, the Ferrari and Cadillac hit the track, I'm thinking those are what the actual car designs are going to be and if that's truly the case, they all seem very very similar with some element of the front wing, shape of side pods and maybe the rear wing being the clear differences. I think all the car looks great and I'm really liking this regulation overall design.

After looking at all of them again, the Mercedes looks really nice.
 


I think it looks really good, classy, the white works very well, the black front wing is classic, the only jarring thing once again are the blue HP logos but other than that, very nice indeed.

Not a fan of the black on the side of the nose. The carbon aero parts give the car enough black around the bottom already, no need to extend that into the mid section of the body with the livery.
I'm certain in red it would make the car look much better, or even add a slight fade effect with going from bright red on top down to a dark red on the bottom.
 
Looks easy enough, I‘m probably going to recreate the design in the game tonight when I‘m back home from work and the gym.

The white on the Ferrari does not look good imo, red or even black would be better.
Honestly, they should have just made a design similar to the SF-24 with white HP logos. The blue just clashes with the bright red base color. That simple fix alone would improve the livery‘s overall visual harmony a lot imo.

That logo is more visible on a red body than it is now b/c it contrasts heavily on an all-red car. That was the whole reason they did a white stripe last season, so the giant logo blends better into the body. This year is a better attempt by spreading out the white & trying to imitate the 312T.
 
At this point, since Ferrari clearly doesn't care when they've got 100 million dollars in front of them, they should just run the Miami HP livery all season long since any other way they put it looks terrible. May as well make a statement and go full awful :lol:
