Mercedes AMG F1 W04 (pre-launch speculation)

[ak21_rao]

Looks like they have gone for the tunnel type exhausts seen in the Red Bull last year and adopted by Lotus Renault this year. As I can see, right now only Lotus, Red Bull and Mercedes have taken this approach.

Looks more like the ferrari acer duct than the RBR ramp to me... Anyway, difficult to tell given the pic.

W02 is back

To be honest it really looks like a W03 with a modesty panel. Unless there is some clever aerodynamics in the sidepod area which we can't see with this crappy photo.

I hoped that they had stretched the rules but apparently they just went for an evolution of a, mediocre (at best) and higly problematic in some areas, car.

They're working so hard on 2014 they decided to cut down the old W02

is that from the wo4 garage...its a much clearer shot showing the top of the air-box and the RW...now all we need is someone who works for the NSA to run it through a pixel enhancer...lol

Nando, don't be too hard on them.

It's obvious that they changed the airbox inlet as well as the nose by adding a modesty panel.

Car will be at least 2 seconds faster than the W03

Did the best I could...

Rollhoop seems interesting. There is also some waves before the sidepod entry but I think it is just artefacts.

I dunno if it is a artefact (maybe side camera) but there could be a hole in the middle of the engine cover, kind of what they have in the W01
