The hideous noses will definitly be fixed year. But im already starting to miss the screaming engines from previous years. The turbo engines just sound so muffled and slow... I dont really hear the quick acceleration and switching gears anymore. Hopefully its because they are still easy on them but i fear not.

 

[Lach]

Well.....at least it's not a penis? I guess?

I wanted to join the caterham camp this years because of KK but I'm not so sure anymore...

@SkySportsF1
Lotus have reiterated that the two pronged nose design on the E22 is legal

No shit. They were never going to come out and say "Well we think it's illegal but we're trying to sneak it by. Keep it to yourself."

 

[Yen]

The Caterham is amazing. Wow. I can't

 

[Osiris]

Caterham what... no, really...

That is fucking hilarious.

 

[Leunam]

Mercedes looks awesome. What the hell, Caterham?

 

[brotkasten]

I really don't get the hate for the Caterham. The real penis noses, like the Force India, McLaren or Toro Rosso are much worse.

 

[itsgreen]

I am excited like a little schoolgirl with all these weird designs

Good for Caterham

Someone should crop together a front comparison of all the cars when Williams shows theirs.

 

[Lucius86]

Caterham just bossed the front nose reveals. Epic.

I agree. I think it's ugly but nowhere near as bad as the penises!

Spoiler

I can't believe I just wrote that!

Aerodynamically, it looks pretty smart though.

 

[chadskin]

Vergne stopped the car for unknown reasons, via AMuS

 

[Mastah]

 

[Staab]

Hmm looks very similar to the Red Bull !
I like the livery

 

[brotkasten]

 

[Juicy Bob]

Kimi

And Checo

 

[chadskin]

Boring paint job on the Williams, I have to say.

 

[DieH@rd]

looooooooooooolololololololololololol

 

[NHale]

McLaren won't be out on track today according to Kravitz. They have such big problem, they can't even start a car.

Have they tried Viagra?

 

[brotkasten]

Boring paint job on the Williams, I have to say.

It's just for testing, iirc.

 

[Omiee]

hahahahahaha the caterham is genius hahahahahaha

 

[Zeknurn]

That's their traditional pre-season testing livery.

Much appreciated.

I think it's easy to say that Caterham wins.

 

[chadskin]

Kimi

The Ferrari looks like it has been in an accident. A steamroller accident. They really need to fix the rules for next year.

Oh, good, I liked their white/blue paint jobs.from the previous years.

RB interviews with Vettel, Ricciardo, Horner, Newey

Vettel picked #5 because thats the number he had when he won the first championship and because other drivers in f1 have done the same (mansell, schumacher)

 

[88random]

Well, I just saw the pictures... Wtf are those dildo noses? That Caterham is hilarious.

Merc and Ferrari are ok looking for now.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Kimi pits

 

[Dilly]

The KERS whine is quite cool though, just like LMP1's.

 

[ElTorro]

That Caterham should be killed with fire.

 

[chadskin]

No monkey seat, interestingly.

 

[dubc35]

rofl @ McL, what a joke

Last year:

Kimi Raikkonen set the fastest time in his Ferrari, a 1:27.104"

About what was expected IMO. Last year a lot was carried over so they could focus on aero and mechanical setups. This year they're focusing on everything working, and some teams are failing that miserably. I would expect them to push more in the 2nd and 3rd tests, although we only have Qualy and GP times to go off at Bahrain.

Love that we're getting our own coverage. Thanks for these!

Tobias Grüner F1 ‏@tgruener 1m

Sebastian Vettel reported some kind of overheating in the back of the car. "We have to look what was catching fire."

And that happened after only 3 laps!

Red Bull's dominating era is finally over. They can pack it up.

It's those hot, tight rears.

I am no aerodynamicist, but it's a clever looking interpretation I agree. If it works in closing the gap to the midfield is another matter - I hope so.

Changing that front wing after 1st corner bumps will be interesting. Plus Caterham have saved a lot of carbon fibre with their concept - looking boss AND saving money. Genius.

 

[AcridMeat]

Holy shit that Caterham hahahaha

Well I think we found our 2014 OT title.

Agreed.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Something about the noses has to be in the title.

 

[DrM]

I just can't see how can Catherhams front nose work with airflow... Will wait for Scarbs analysis

Ferrari has the World Championship in the bag. Sweet

Complete and utter domination by Ferrari confirmed

And WTF@ Mclaren. How can you make such mistake?

 

[AcridMeat]

The dawn of the turbo-dick era.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Yay TSN/TSN2 in Canada has every race, quali and practice this year.
