Actually... that might be it with the logo on top.

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Sun Jan 06, 2008 6:46 am

Could be. But it could be just someones chop, with the official SFM logo.

I will probably find out what the new Ferrari looks like tomorrow. there is no way that I'm going to stay up until the early hours of the morning just to see an unveiling of a new car.

Hmm... it looks pretty similar to last year's Ferrari.

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Mon Jan 07, 2008 10:13 am

The front wing is different. Go on the F1 site. You'll be able to see it better.

by **Admin_Holden** Mon Jan 07, 2008 10:18 am

Hmm... I noticed that too, but there must've been a small improvement in the front of it. Oh well, the "we hate our cars, we like Ferrari's" team is next.

Their MP4/23 will be launced as I speak in 2 days, 20 hours and 45 minutes in our time at 4:14 pm Melbourne time.

There are differences compared to its predecessor outside and inside the car. I also just noticed that the walls for the tub are higher too.

I think there might be a little bit of change to the rear wing as well.

by **fordman6** Mon Jan 07, 2008 10:35 am

the wing looks lower than 2007....

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Mon Jan 07, 2008 10:44 am

The intake looks different too.

by **Admin_Holden** Mon Jan 07, 2008 11:52 am

BTW I looked at it on TV (Channel 10 of course) and it is also a darker red.

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Tue Jan 08, 2008 4:44 am

Now for differences on the MP4-23 by McLaren...

by **Admin_Holden** Tue Jan 08, 2008 4:55 am

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Fri Jan 11, 2008 4:01 am

Also, retired race driver Alexander Wurz has signed with Honda to be their test driver.

by **Admin_Holden** Fri Jan 11, 2008 1:43 pm

Nothing special from Toyota. Just looks like all their liveries excpet a minor tweak to the monocoque and bridge (on the wing)

by **--->Da[V]id<---** Fri Jan 11, 2008 1:44 pm

If you ask me, the livery looks like the 2002/2003 version.

by **Admin_Holden** Fri Jan 11, 2008 3:07 pm

Yep, it does. I was actually gonna say that.
