Mercedes W13 Speculation Thread

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

The Engine cover shape is very low towards the rear starting almost in the middle. Never seen thus far on any other car

If I heard correctly, Toto said they will run the car today. I am guessing this is a fully real and running car.

Yeah. It had been said before that they would reveal and shakedown the car the same day

bad job with the livery.

Is that matte Mercedes?
I preferred the black livery. This one always looked bland.
I disagree. I find that black liveries look great in the studio, but very ugly on track. As Ferrari should be red, Mercedes should be silver. It should be metallic though, not matte.

Think I saw a blurry picture of a car at Silverstone yesterday. Reminds me actually of this W13 "render" (?) / AR car / real model ?
