F1 2023 season

[jimharri]

Nice looking car. Will they be more of a rival to Red Bull this season, who had a relatively easy time of it last year?

Loving the look of the new merc let’s hope it is competitive this year

I liked the “ look “ of last year’s…

It looks good but so did last years and that turned into a donkey

Looks like the flat side areas have gone - is it back to standard-ish design?

Looks more menacing in black.

Would be good if both Mercedes and Ferrari gave Red Bull a fight. With a mention of McClaren who are slowly moving in a positive direction.

Looks like a half way house between what they did last year and the wider intakes you see on other cars. Will be interesting to see what it gets up to on the track.

I'll give it 30 seconds in testing before Horner claims Mercedes are cheating.

Be interesting to see how they do, they believed the minimal intake concept could still work even when they had the problems, if they’ve got it right it could be a silver bullet.

When do they do testing and let us get a glimpse of comparative speeds?

Barcelona isn't it?

Not sure bud, when’s Barcelona?

With the exception of the HAAS who are obviously slaves to the money and are blind to world events right now, all the cars look as stunning as ever and hopefully we have some great racing this season.

It's Bahrain, 23 to 25 Feb.

Not sure exactly, but there's testing in Bahrain at the end of next week. Sky have coverage.

It would, but with Red Bull and Max coming out on top.

Both in the Constructors and Drivers. :)

If that what occurs and it all goes to the last few races it would make a decent season.

There's bound to be the usual doses of controversy.

Hopefully the Sky team hasn't been sanitised by fucking off people that questioned the FIA decisions.

 

[crooky]

Can't get excited about this season at all. Red Bull were clearly the quickest car for most of last season and being at the start of a new set of regulations I think Red Bull will keep hold of their advantage and win in both championships again.

Good luck Slipper; you'll need it!
