I think the car will be fairly decent. It hasn't been designed by the team themselves, so it shouldn't be too affected by the team changes going on. The difficulty the team will have is being able to expolit the pace the car has, with two rookie drivers and no track experience. I'm gonna stick my neck out and say on raw pace it'll be the best of the 3 new teams, but won't do the best.


What makes you think it'll have the raw pace? Everybody's making comparisons with it the Virgin car, they're both running the same engine (well, the Virgin has the same engine, not exactly doing a lot of running!) there's nothing so far that suggests that it may be outright faster (apart from the fact that Dallara have blatantly ripped off the RB5).

When i first saw the car i thought it wasn't too bad, but jeez, the more pictures i see the more horrendous that drab and dreary shade of grey is!

I find grey cars often look better in the light of day.

I wouldn't know cos I know very few people dull enough to paint a car grey as opposed to the 3 obvious better choices in the same area:

Black
White
Silver

Not that bad... its still simple-looking and the livery needs some more sponsors hehe; but its ok.
At least its out! :clap: so we can see Bruno, and India can see its F1 driver :clap:

There's alot of black/dark cars this yr. I wonder if the pit crew uniform will be black and dark as well... i'm sure the black uniforms must be HELL on super hot tracks :flamethrower:

It's not really based on anything. Just a hunch.

At first maybe it will, i guess we'll see, but i think they'll suffer with reliability from not testing, and therefore finder it much harder to advance in comparison to the other new teams.
