Can't wait for the testing this week to see the new cars. I have a good feeling about Mercedes being in the mix this year.

I figured out what the Merc reminds me of. That horrendous-looking 2009 Force India:

Also, last year's Sauber.

I dunno, the front wing supports on the FW32 were a lot more inboard.

Official Renault 'preview' here, but you can't really see anything properly.
I thought that too, but, as I mentioned in the original post the nose actually looked lower to me ...... maybe camera the angle?

Also, the engine cover, but, black makes it a little harder to make out.

Not long to find out though, about 20 minutes

Just the nose. Everything else is totally different.

It would have been presumptuous to use and actual Toyota as a doormat. :whip:
