Caterham CT-05 Renault

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.

Also RW endplates are painted green instead of black.

We're probably going to see something similar to the livery of the GP2 car.

As Scarbs said aldready. I also belive that is close up shot from above into the area where are lower base plane and 1 st flap of FW (flap tip is sligtly bends downwards).

Look i mark that area with two circles... They obviously made some changes in livery of the car....

Could it be an aerodynamic faring at the end of the front wing directly in front of the tire? Essentially replacing the first couple wing elements? Not sure. Very interesting tease pic.

No it's literally the same front wing as Jerez with a green and white paint scheme. It's what the instagram was about.

Turned down the chance to meet Vettel at Silverstone in 2007. He was a test driver at the time and I didn't think it was worth queuing!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

That puts even more Focus on that ugly Nose. Green would have been better.
