Prince.M5 Messages 5,196 Kuala Lumpur Messages CHVRCHES_GTP Feb 1, 2012 #63 prisonermonkeys She's pretty - no stepped nose, as near as I can tell. Click to expand... Yeap, no stepped nose but this one has a really steep-dropping nose... The launch car may be in silver but the real one might be a different livery as has been in talk.

Alex. FEED ME PEOPLE Premium Messages 8,835 Northamptonshire Messages AlexGibbo27 Feb 1, 2012 #66 What's that piece of bodywork on the edge of the sidepod toward the back?
GOTMAXPOWER Messages 7,277 Birmingham, UK Messages GOTMAXPOWER Feb 1, 2012 #67 Recent McLaren's look fat at the rear, it might just be the livery though.
axletramp Never trust a fart. Premium Messages 19,013 Jersey V.1.0 Messages axletramp Feb 1, 2012 #68 Short and sweet! I don't mind that nose at all.

DaxCobra Messages 9,303 Norwich,Norfolk Messages GTP_DaxCobra Feb 1, 2012 #70 Do the sidepods drop towards the back? New regulation? or is the shinyness playing with my eyes?

Click to expand... I see.. Thought they really were considering on changing their livery. The nose in the picture you provided looks normal, but from the side in the launch coverage it looks really steep. I'll reserve that until I see more.

Pezzarinho17 Messages 2,938 Shrewsbury Messages pezzarinho17 Feb 1, 2012 #75 It looks very square, no V section which is popular?
ZEROX Messages 3,990 Area 10 Messages Valkyrize92 Feb 1, 2012 #76 Looks normal to me. Seems that they ditch L sidepod. Is just me or the engine cover looks sharp? NINJAEDIT: The nose section seems interesting down below.

Bram Turismo Go Flying Lizards! Premium Messages 10,850 Belgium Messages bramturismo Feb 1, 2012 #77 Sidepods look interesting, the car as a whole looks like Betty been at McDonald's...
F1 fan Thin Lizzy fan. Premium Messages 5,379 Yokohama Messages F1fan1 Feb 1, 2012 #78 Autosport have an article up now. Good image of the car too. Looks better from that angle.
PeterJB Compulsive Handwasher Premium Messages 9,262 Corsham Messages lipming Feb 1, 2012 #79 Looks like last year's car put on weight over the Christmas break.
Prince.M5 Messages 5,196 Kuala Lumpur Messages CHVRCHES_GTP Feb 1, 2012 #80 ZEROX The nose section seems interesting down below. Click to expand... I can see some sort of black stuff under the nose.. What's that thing?

GOTMAXPOWER Messages 7,277 Birmingham, UK Messages GOTMAXPOWER Feb 1, 2012 #83 That bulge on the side is being covered by the drivers to the live stream, looks like something they don't want the world to see.

axletramp Never trust a fart. Premium Messages 19,013 Jersey V.1.0 Messages axletramp Feb 1, 2012 #85 Quite a low key launch. I preferred last year's with the parts of the car being brought in and assembled by the public.

prisonermonkeys Be Fearless Premium Messages 33,155 Hammerhead Garage Feb 1, 2012 #86 You can't really see it in this photo, but the car looks like it has a very bizarre nose. It appears that there is a piece of bodywork extended back from the centre of the front wing to some point under the safety cell.

Liquid Fission Mailed Premium Messages 30,542 Bratvegas Feb 1, 2012 #87 The nose looks much more convexed than I thought it would be. It's definitely no mallard.
Prince.M5 Messages 5,196 Kuala Lumpur Messages CHVRCHES_GTP Feb 1, 2012 #88 Sorry for the oversized image, but really that thing under the nose is very interesting!
Pezzarinho17 Messages 2,938 Shrewsbury Messages pezzarinho17 Feb 1, 2012 #89 Surely the black part under the nose is the snow plough design seen on the car last year?
GOTMAXPOWER Messages 7,277 Birmingham, UK Messages GOTMAXPOWER Feb 1, 2012 #90 Whatever it is it looks like it is channeling air to the floor of the car, and probably back to the diffuser, I don't know how legal that will be...
