Aston Martin AMR25 Speculation Thread

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.

Aston/Mercedes?

Context.. ?
He was asked about front pullrod. It's his "Not only Ferrari". Haas rejected it, so does he mean someone like Aston or Mercedes?

No more rear crash structure winglet? Perhaps they're more confident in their floor/diffuser this year?

It was the fire up... Its not like they put all aero stuff on the car for such a moment.

Maybe all parts are not even produced yet.

It appears to be a new car, though some of the detailing is very odd and makes me question how real it is.

When they zoom in to the mirror area, you can see that the car has switched to an overbite sidepod, with a strangely sharp-edged ledge directly under and downstream the mirror pylon. It's in a similar position to the upper lip of the previous years underbite radiator inlet, and almost looks like they just filled in the entire inlet ramp and painted it. Not sure why they would go through all that trouble for this little "leak," but who knows?

Shark fin is different from last years pointed one, but almost looks like they just cut the tip off.

Wings are from last year.

Weird.

It's the AMR24 with the Austin sidepods (or some similar they have made for the livery reveal). It doesn't have overbite inlets, they have just covered the inlet and painted it, although that confirms AMR25 will have overbite. Every other part of the car remains exactly the same. We will have to wait until the 23rd of February to see the car and on the 24th we will se on track images from the shakedown at Bahrain.

That big ledge on top of the overbite can't be real, that doesn't make sense aerodynamically. And will they switch to front pull rods, I think so, we will see.

Because it is not a new car. It is an AMR24 and the same one from the London show. Inlet being covered and painted over perhaps is a clue but it's old parts.

I am sure if they showed up with this they would be clear dead last. :)

It's still pushrod front and back according to AMRs press release.
