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.
Crazy small width at the sidepod intake area you can see the whole rear tire looking at it from the front. I guess that was predicted by gazetta...... so perhaps the nose will be smaller in the b spec we will see in second test
I actually think the intake itself is a bit wider (but also maybe a bit less deep), behind that, it's indeed extremely tight packaging... Can't wait to see how the new Merc and Red Bull compare.

Very agressive looking. Ferrari has managed to surprise with some interesting and unique things in last years. This time with winglets around the airbox and with those huge bargeboard elements. Also quite aggressive rake.
Overall it looks nice and promising. Hopefully that will turn into good performance on track.

copied from regulations:

- a) A longitudinal line parallel to and 800mm from the car centre plane.
- b) A diagonal line running rearwards and outwards, from a point 430mm rearward of the
front wheel centre line and 240mm from the car centre plane, at an angle of 4.5° to the
car centre plane.
- c) A transverse line 430mm rearward of the front wheel centre plane.
- d) A line running through a point 625mm forward of the plane C-C and 320mm from the
car centre plane, running parallel to the diagonal line defined in Article 3.5.5(c).
