Caterham CT-05 Renault

[RicME85]

It looks like they have gone back to basics, much like the T127 with its simplistic sidepods

[daveyrace]

Yeahh the whole Car looks like it was designed by someone wo is n F1 for the First Year and wants to go the safest Route possible, no matter how fast it is.....

Have you seen the size of the hot air outlets at the back, I think Caterham are trying to make the most reliable car this season, all they have to do is drive round and wait for the other cars to cook themselves, wings to fall off or not make it out of the garage. We could see their first win =D> .

They too have that green led thing on top of the roll hoop, is it to do with the electrical side of the power unit?

When you compare the sidepods on this car to those of the Lotus and Red Bull, Caterham must have had some real problems with packaging...

This doesn't look like the car that's going to lift them off the back of the grid.

I think, here we can see the turbo cover and probably a flexible hose for the turbocharger.

EDIT: Not a hose, just carbon playing tricks with my eyes

somebody know what is the green light on air box ?
juste on "T" camera ?

[Leendert82]

The sidepods doesnt look that big (not the smallest of course) but not that bad

[Mr.G]

No , but I noticed it on Mercedes too, it looks like some new FIA feature

that's odd. have they ditched a ct-04 concept?

CT04 is the to be released Caterham new road car

I think their nose solution is probably the most effective at allow air to pass to the rear of the car (on paper) perhaps a necessity considering the side pods which are enormous.

yes, i see that for Mercedes too.
can we imagine is a sign for "battery charged" of the KERS ?

Huge cooling exit at the rear. Maybe they expect to tighten that up as testing progresses. This car looks like you could make it out of simple Lego parts.

[Thunder]

I rember them having huge cooling Outlets last year. So i'm in doubts we see improvements here.

[Ozan]

Am I mistaken or do I see a front pullrod suspension?

also front wing looks wonderful, they really aim for an outwash design.

[Blackout]

A Tank !
What are those huge schields surrounding the turbo ?
Pull rods and interesting hirizontal fins under the nose

Looks like they put the turbine into the gearbox casing.
