Scuderia Ferrari SF71H

Aero looks good and chassis should be competitive, but the engine??

strategically darkened floor cuts

From the above, obviously using a placeholder floor which suggests... maybe some innovation on the floor they’re keeping secret for now?

Last year they just showed it

So Ferrari go longer!!!

Let's be honest here. If you were told that the Mercedes and Ferrari wheelbases would be closer than in 2017 I doubt anyone would think it was due to Ferrari going longer and not Mercedes going shorter.

Boy did I get it wrong

SF71H has increased rake angle

How are they gonna cool those engines?

[Juzh]

Anyone care to explain why they're hiding rear tyre wake slots? Fake floor?

[Mamba]

Are they planning a shakedown of the car at Fiorano later today like last year?

With the air inlets - this is one of the benefits of a 50% efficient engine - you need 33% less cooling than a 33% efficient engine.

Ferrari retain the high and long sidepod inlets with lower suspension mounts to the chassis where Mercedes has their suspension high. It seems that Red Bull did a bit of both this year.

High sidepods inlets absolutely, but not long. They are so small! There’s a comparison pic that Sky posted on twitter of the cars front on (I can’t work out how to post pictures here lol) but if you find it, check out the sidepod opening Vs the edge of the front tyre. Last year they basically met at the edge and this year the gap is huge. Much smaller. I’m quite excited to see how she do.

Long as front to rear. Mercedes are thin and wide.
