Euh, is that even allowed?


Yeah; they are using one of their allocated 100km 'filming' days like they did last year. They have to use special (presumably crap) tyres for it.

Williams features one of the best liveries, but the team itself is just a shadow from what it was 20 years ago

still a whole lot brighter than its utter mediocrity from 2005-2013.

nowadays they have a potential for good results, but people like Massa, Claire Williams and Rob Smedley (we must stay conservative, fuck the rest) ruin the whole operation

it was a bit louder, but not enough

the bad thing is that TV broadcast still keeps a low level, as they should keep with full ambient sound

Revoke their licence if true. He promised us something else than boring grey.

I thought Haas said they would have a yellow livery this year :) Would be awesome to have a yellow car back on the grid!

Ferrari demands exclusivity, for obvious reasons

So far:
Renault: black with a bit of yellow (livery not confirmed yet)
Red Bull: black with a bit of yellow and red
Williams: white
Ferrari: red with a bit of white

expected:
Mercedes: same coulour since 2010
Toro Rosso: same colour since 2006
McLaren: grey or black
Force India: grey or black
Sauber: same cars, same sponsors. Probably blue and yellow, the brigthest on the grid
Manor: probably red and white
Haas: probably grey and red.

If I think back to say 1999 we had a grey McLaren, a red Ferrari, a yellow Jordan, a multi coloured Williams, a bright blue Benetton, a dark and light blue Sauber, an orange Arrows, a white Stewart and of course the two liveries of the BAR.

Do they have a launch before the test? Seems a bit odd to wear the overall two days before the test.

With those overalls, I'm half expecting this (or a variant of) to be Haas' livery

Whenever you think that ugly grey is gone some team comes up with it again. Midland, HRT, Sauber and now Haas?
