Force India's 2015 livery with what I'm assuming will be their 2015 nose.

[rage2]

So the rule changes went from a pornstar to Asian on the nose. WTF haha.

Not a full unveil of the W06 yet ( that will come on Sunday ), i couldn't let you guys have all the fun.

No dicks on the Benz either, actually is that a hole?

:rofl:

[chongkee_]

Looks like just the black turning vanes. Looks good.
Lotus nose reminds me of the Caterham nose from last year. Looks weird.

That's a hole, and those are pics from the 2014 F1 W05 Hybrid Jerez unveil last year.

You can tell because Hamilton isn't sure if the thing is fast or not, and Rosberg doesn't look like he want to commit a hate crime on Hamilton.

For some reason i thought that i read an article saying that was the W06 so i just googled the pics.... Fail on my part.

This one is real though, from mercedesamgf1.com

Just realized that the nose won't meet 2015 regulations anyway. Hamilton's hair is longer now too.
I should've looked closer. Haha.

I think that other picture you posted is from testing last year even though Merc just posted it on their twitter feed.

I think its their social media that is F*ing me up :banghead:

what a joke.

[diamondedge]

I wish they made Lotus look more John Player Special like. Lotus 78 plzthx!!

[Canmorite]

Love the look from Lotus. Black and gold go so well together :thumbsup:

Waiting for the MP4-30 to come out. Speculating it might go for an orange/white instead of red/white like before.

What's with the BTTF reference there? Confused...

BTTF reference explained.

I love McLaren, and I love BTTF, but that shit is cheese haha.

This whole 1988 crap is embarrassing to bring up. Makes me feel like an oilers fan or something, with the team still talking about the damn 80's cups.

Just the livery or the car itself? It looks ok imo.

[chongkee_]

Like the MP4-30 nose, I think it looks better than the other cars so far.
Rumour has it that the Mercs would have a similar nose. Low and narrow.
Merc is at Silverstone filming today.

EDIT: Merc Spyshots

Those #w06spy pics would be more hilarious if they didn't come from the official AMG account haha.

I was going to buy some Honda McLaren fanboy gear but they're so sterile. :rofl:

I think it looks awesome too. Most of the internet seems up in arms about it though. Whatever. Pretty colors and patterns are meaningless at the end of the day.

[flipstah]

Fuck, I'm excited for Sepang.

Force India isn't too bad. Gotta love the nipple,

West McLaren throwback. I like it. The mirrors kill it for me though.0

I don't think we would have ever seen a red and white Marlboro style livery because didn't Phillip Morris/Marlboro end their sponsorship w/ McLaren in 1997?

Black/orange or white/orange would've worked but that's too close with Force India so red it was methinks.

I'm just going to make stupid Button t-shirts and hope someone captures me in Sepang. :rofl:

[Mibz]

FML I didn't think I'd like white/red either but dude on Reddit did an awful MS Paint mock-up and I love it:

Why? I think Honda and Mclaren are a great combo and should do really well together. Id love to see a road car from a Honda/Mclaren collaberation.

I can just picture it! A P1 with no torque!

We shall call it:

The P(CR-Z)1

Won't happen. McLaren approached Honda with the McLaren F1 project back in the day, and Honda said no. That's why they turned to BMW for the engine.

Alright in an effort to redeem myself here is the 2015 Sauber Car! C34

As with many teams the C34 will rock some C33 parts for Jerez this weekend.

Pretty nice looking car, very different livery from 2014.

As for this nose, who needs length when you have girth!

Someone else can do Ferrari, because i couldn't give a shit. :poosie:

[rage2]

Nobody's going to do Ferrari. :rofl:

Mercedes has the best nose out of all of them. Reminds me of a simpler time.

tell that to the upcoming 280hp civic turbo:dunno: and save your judgements about that until you drive one yes?

I guess the upcoming Honda NSX is lame too then:devil:
