I guess it was cold outside :D.

It is weird to see the front wing connected to nose by such small part of those plates it looks quite fragile to my eyes :).
But I hope Williams is going to win a race this year, that'd be perfect :).

Very similar to the Merc wing from last season. The smaller connection area makes the wing work better.

The Williams looks cool, although what would you expect, it's Martini! Looks like Rexona has jumped from Lotus to Williams for this season. Cool, we'll get a Bottas bodyspray commercial. :D

The Force India is just a total meh. The creative and techy looks of the old orange, green, white combos were cool, but this is just another one of those corporate calculation liveries with no creativity.

The front wing certainly looks conventional, but it looks gorgeous. However the car shown is still a bit photoshopped IMO, so I'd be indeed surprised if the acutal Lotus would look like that in Jerez.

Well its a render not the actual car, so is the Williams. Bit boring to look at, but it helps to the teams to hide the details.

In other words these renders are like bikinis on a beautiful girl: it hides the most important parts but anticipates much. :cool:

Eugh, the liveries this year are bad. The Mercedes was also revealed today: http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2015/01/29/m ... lverstone/

So we have a bland Force India, bland McLaren and bland Mercedes.

Although the idea of more "West era" colors on McLaren is cool, it's still the silver which they should have gotten rid of. Replace the silver with white and it would be cool. Maybe add some more red in there too.
And the Mercedes is once again full silver with random splotches of random colors here and there because apparently no one in the team can design a livery...

Any idea, why Ferrari has the Alfa-Romeo brand on rear of sidepods (and no FIAT brand anywhere, due its formal separation from chrysler-fiat concern?), please? :scratch:

Heh, yeah, that's an interesting one. Hopefully there will be an explanation on that somewhere. Maybe they didn't need a Fiat logo, since the car got a F14T overload last year... :D

Also, Sauber was also revealed today, it's not gray! A miracle has happened. I'm not yet sure on whether I like the livery or not, but at least it's something else. Although it would be fun to know how last minute deal this sponsor coloring was, since the driver's outfits still have the old color. http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2015/01/30/s ... es-launch/

No way that is the actual thing, looks like some sort of camouflage to me.

That's exactly what it is :). Final livery will be applied later, though most likely will be the same as last year...
