So... is it the exact (or almost exact) copy od 2024 or there are any serious differences?

Seems a very simple evolution, but they made great progress last year so let’s see if they can build during the season.

Anyway, they will switch to Mercedes engine and have less resources than many so I don’t hope very much for this year, they will focus on 2026

[Foryster]

Again and again they focus on next year.

In 2023 they focus on building totally new car for 2024. We saw the outcome.

2022 was the best. They were clearly P4 - since them the team collapsed.

The only hope is that they achieved something in the floor.

Did the car ever meet minimum weight last year? Perhaps they worked on reducing weight even more.

Seems to me that they always need the extreme end of cooling for this engine, as well as being down on power. No wonder they’re ditching it - I know it’s Ferrari-like but that ‘mid-sidepod-canon’ looks pretty bulky.

Yes with the last package that brings decent speed.
They clearly are keeping this last version and pushing for it.

They will focus on 2026 like Williams for instance.

I’m not sure they will be competitive

It might put them in a decent position for the first few races since they'll have the set-up nailed a bit better running a familiar car. But yes, they'll likely flounder towards the rear.
