Yea that does look better, I still prefer the yellow from 2017
But otherwise I love what they did with the colours.
So the car hasnât been launched officially, but some spyshots leaked from their shakedown day, so Toro Rosso posted an official picture. This is the STR13:
Same livery as last year, and it looks like theyâve adopted the thumb nose as well.
Iâve decided to join as well. Was wondering where everyone went. Sup guys.
Also, that Alfa Sauber looks amazing.
Sup! Good to have you on board.
Big day today! The heavyweights are launching their new carsâŚ
Yeah canât wait to see that Ferrari.
Yep. They made some real progress last year only for some reliability issues and a few brainfade moments on track to let them down. The SF70 was probably a better car aero-wise than the Merc; even Red Bull seem to have copied one or two ideas from the Ferrai, and thatâs saying something.
Iâm silently hoping that the Merc wonât be as sorted from day 1; itâs depressing to see them run almost 200 laps a day in testing while the other teams sit in the garage with cars in pieces.
Shoooooooooooooosh we will not jinx the red team. We can say what we want about the silver team, they need to be brought back down to earth.
Sooooooooooo excited to see the cars. Any idea of times?
Will do some digging. By the way, since I support the orange cars, Iâll be trying to jinx both the red and silver ones equally.
Merc is 12h10 GMT, so 14h30 our time. Ferrari is 15h00 CET which is 16h00 SA time.
Start your count-down!
Hehehe I feel let down by them, and that comes from someone who was a Mclaren supporter her whole life, then they added Lewis. I was living in the UK back then and I felt bad for Button, he was relegated to the shadows and that is where I picked up my dislike for Lewis as a person. And he just keeps rubbing me the wrong way. I loved the prelewis era. I even have Mclaren gear - travel bag and flag still - the rest got lost or stolen during my travels.
And thanks! Cant wait to see those cars!
Oh, and thanks to a naughty gust of wind plus a wide awake spy photographerâŚ
We have a papaya orange McLaren being unloaded in Spain!
More Mercedes pictures. As is usual from Merc, very detailed car. Visually itâs pretty much a W08 with a halo and minus the shark fin and T-wing. Itâs probably going to be fast out of the boxâŚ
Like the Mclaren sneak peek!
The Merc tho, looks like what I expected from all their sneak peeks.
Like the nose on the car tho
Yeah, Merc still havenât gone the thumb nose route. It looks great; I donât know why other teams arenât doing it.
just gotta love the fact that everyone has seen the car and the livestream for the reveal just popped up on facebook
Thatâs not a 2018 car. No Halo.
Yep listening to the waffle now - cant wait to see the car
