Yes, it is beautiful. Until Lance gets behind the wheel and plays bumper-cars.

Has pushrod rear too, so Merc (and Williams) will as well.

Needs bigger mirrors (for stroll)

See it squat down on the corner is beautiful.

That sidepod inlet design is very interesting ... My take on it is that they've turned the inlet upward to face the sky rather than opening directly forward, and the shape of that small front piece of the inlet can vary for different conditions/needs.

Something else I noticed is that the Merc rear suspension this year has a very flat pushrod arm compared to what other pushrod rear cars had last year (Red Bull, McLaren, etc.).

That is a very aggressive geometry there. Probably for aero reasons. Hope it works well.

COTA's moving grandstands around again. T2 to T13, T6 back to T19. Just watch, they'll say they've added those grandstands when they're really just moving them, like they did when they moved that grandstand to T6 in 2022. T6 GS crowd was weak, and T2 has always been a terrible place for a grandstand. Hard to believe anyone ever bought seats there. Starting prices are listed for each grandstand.

Looks good.  Nice and Red

Still can't believe Ferrari didn't release the 2024 red livery on Valentine's.

Man, the liveries/designs just make me feel like this season is just going to be a repeat.

Apart from the green Bottas (I don't even know what that team is calling itself), everything just kinda looks like a repeat of last year like the teams are sticking with the status quo.

Well the AlphaTauri/Visa Cash App car is pretty different, and in a good way, but yeah most teams aren't shaking it up.  I expect the RBR to look basically the same, so I guess the only remaining question is, will the Silver Arrows be black this year, or not?

I don't really care what the cars look like, just give me something remotely competitive 1-4 instead of 2-5.

And given how the reveals have gone, I'd say it's a 0.5% chance the Silver Arrows are silver this year. Maybe purple.

I like fun, interesting, and diverse sets of livery.  The sport is also a show and that's an important part of it.

Sure, I would trade being stuck with 20 all-exposed-carbon-fiber cars for more competition for 1st place, but that's a different discussion for me.

I saw something that said they'd be alternating from race to race, between Stake F1 Team and Kick F1 Team. No shit.

Maranello Red: "We Are Checking"

Maranello Red: "We Are Checking"

Following the surprise debut record by Maranello Red ("Plan C, Plus Five"), the duo is back with their sophomore album titled "We Are Checking." In what promises to be their last recording before a planned breakup in 2025, the electronica duo of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz pour their souls into the 12-track list. Starting with the first track ("Why Am I So Unlucky?") the powerful album oozes with the frustrations that come inherent to being a top team that just can't seem to get anything right. The melancholic "Pole Means Nothing" is especially heart-wrenching making you feel as though you are in the car as another botched pitstop brings you out behind the leader. If you're a fan of Red's debut album that was full of hope with poppy beats, this is a marked change but a story that needs to be told -- and heard -- nonetheless.

Carlos and Charlie: Success Hasn't Discovered Me Yet

 

Interesting video here, quickly reviewing some features of the AMR24. Especially interesting imho was the bit about the 'split lines' on the ramps that were causing fllow detachment issues last year. Now the entire sidepod is one piece, to eliminate the split lines.

 

Since BAT is so heavily involved with McLaren these days, here's a throwback to BAR.

Merc combined the silver and black. Looks like a good car. Hope it’s fast.

"Are you serious, bro?  Not even close to enough black."

-2024 F1 livery designers.

I think the complaining about the lack of color is overblown. Stake, McLaren, Ferrari, VisaCashAppRedBullWellsFargoIntuitTurboTax, and Aston Martin all have plenty of color.

Agreed. The "we're not going to be able to tell the cars apart" meme is a little absurd. 

That Merc looks pretty decent actually. imo It's definitely a Mercedes.

Mercedes-- another black car with a stripe of color.
