Mercedes W13 Speculation Thread

[JPBD1990]

It looks like it has an absolutely enormous ‘cannon’ exit at the conclusion of the engine cover. Can’t wait to see it

very intriguing to say the least. Looks like a military weapon under there

I wasn't sure if this was going to be a real car or show car release but that teaser seems to have answered the question.

The area above the engine plenum looks to be quite low. The Engine cover is sloping down rapidly it seems

I'd be surprised if they used the real car for that "sheet". Seems more like a render to me, but can't really tell.

Looks like a render and not a real car, I hope they're pulling a HAAS and only showing a render of an early stage, as this looks super plain

I preferred the black livery. This one always looked bland.

That looks a lot like McLaren.

Edit: But the sidepods, at least from this side shot, don't look as wide. Anyway, it seems Aston Martin are the only one who went the undercut route from Merc teams.

Rear of the car to me looks like McLaren with the tightly packaged end and a cannon cooling exhaust. Also no louvres like McLaren.

But the sidepods are slightly more undercut, more similar to Williams. However Williams is wider. So some kind of a mix of Williams and McLaren which would make sense due to the fact they all share engines.
