Toro Rosso STR11

[Jimlaad43]

After being slightly late with parts, Toro Rosso will only test with a blue livery this week.

They'll probably do a proper release later this week.

Would really love this livery:

I doubt that they will change too drastically from the charging bull design.

 

[NoirAntares]

That's a pretty interesting take on the pronged nose, considering the rest of the teams that used that design had a shorter tip. Reminds me a lot of the Sauber's nose from last year

I always thought it looked terrible because the bull looked like some comedy cartoon one from a distance.

Would really love this livery:

Nice. Reminds me a lot of the X2011 color liveries.

 

[Samus]

That rear end is very tight. Almost as slim as the 2011 Williams.

Dat ass

 

[aarror]

Sexiest car on the grid, even with that nose. The taper to the sidepods is sublime, hopefully it goes as good as it looks.

 

[RACECAR]

Interesting way they've package the rear of the car.

That rear end is very tight. Almost as slim as the 2011 Williams.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Would really love this livery:

They might change because Red Bull have also hone down the route of a large red bull on the engine cowling ... but I doubt that it will be anything too radical.

 

[Samus]

The main reason for no livery yet is because the Bull is airbrushed onto the cover by hand but they were running behind due to the engine change, so they've not had chance to get it done.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

But only the bull - everything else is decals.

I'd like to see the bull on the sidepods, with everything forward of the cockpit being metallic gold. Although it could be incredibly tacky.

Technical Analysis - STR11

The final STR11 livery, featuring Mad Max Verstappen:

Although that red streak across his eyes makes him look more like Charlize Theron than Tom Hardy.

Car looks good, too bad it's missing more than half it's sponsors from last season.

That's the falling price of oil for you.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

That's the falling price of oil for you.

Yeah I know. Oh well.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

The other day petrol was $0.92/litre (a price I haven't seen since the 1990s). The next day it was $1.24/litre for no apparent reason.

I live in a state with some of the Cheapest gas prices among the other 49, and these are prices I haven't seen myself in about 18-20 years. Though I will say good on Manor securing an oil backer, even if it is only due to Rio.

 

[Jimlaad43]

It looks good

Shame it's the same colour as half the grid though...

 

[prisonermonkeys]

From above:

The red and gold elements are much tidier this year.

 

[RACECAR]

Shame it's the same colour as half the grid though...

Its the same colors that every previous Toro Rosso has been, how is the same color as half the grid?

 

[prisonermonkeys]

It's a dark colour, just like the Red Bull, McLaren, Renault and Force India. That's five teams and ten cars with a dark colour dominating.

Red Bull Cola is disgusting. Don't drink it.
