Pre-Season 2015 Car Launches

[cider_and_toast]

Given the ammount of money they waste all over the place, I miss the whiz bang launches that teams used to do a while ago.

 

[rufus_mcdufus]

It's not an exciting year for launches as there's no significant rule changes apart from noses (and slightly narrower front wings?).
Knowing my ability to predict things though, they'll probably all end up looking mad like something out of Wacky Races.

Some concept liveries.

The Team Enstone one looks superb but the others are a bit "meh". The first McLaren concept in the blue, black and silver looks awful.

Nice of Mercedes to let someone else be first in something.

No new Force India until the second test.

That is just piss poor management.

They're not the first team to decide to skip the first pre-season test in the history of F1 and Force India do an outstanding job for the money they spend so I don't see how their management can be criticised. It's not a big issue unless they have major problems with the car, which is unlikely considering the regulations are pretty much identical to last year.

Williams have released a teaser and you will be pleased to know the "so called" ant eater nose has shrunk.

Wasn't Rexona part of the Lotus sponsorship package last year?

FB The new regulations mean most of the new noses will look like some variation of that.

And yes, Rexona was on the Lotus last year:

I thought that the nose design of last years Williams was one of the least offensive; not sure about this.

Still, no problem if it wins races...

 

[FB]

It will only win races if Toto let's it...

 

[Andyoak]

Ooh, you cynical old bugger

 

[Greenlantern101]

More a floppy than a stiffy.

 

[cider_and_toast]

I want a new rule inserted into the technical regulations right now.

"Rule 1.1.2.5.4.3.1 - Any part of the car relating to body work must not be fuck ugly"

 

[soccerman17]

Phallic Formula One noses now come in youth sizes.

 

[Andyoak]

It's to appeal to a younger audience

 

[FB]

I saw something about a so-called teaser video of the McLaren Honda but can't find it anywhere. Anyone seen it?

 

[F1Yorkshire]

Yeah saw it on twitter yesterday. Lots of Back to the Future references in it.
