Mercedes W05 - Finally revealed after the tedium... (page 2)

[ajprice]

First picture of a bit of the car on the Mercedes F1 twitter

Part of the engine cover, it has black bits again, so it won't just be silver and Petronas green.


The wait is almost over… 1,000 RT’s for another exclusive @MercedesAMGF1 W05 shot! #W05sup #F1 http://t.co/sIowujF2l0

Retweets will show more bits, like some kind of weird German techno strip show thing.

This slow reveal does nothing to engender my support of all things Mercedes/Petronas.

Give us a nice HD video of the building process like the recent Alfa 4c one.

It looks quite droopy at the front from that suspension shot.

But yes, just show the bloody car :-)

More black bits, and.. It has MIRRORS!!!! OMGWTF!!!!!

Can't tell much else from that one. At least the second one shows something funky going on with the top wishbones, aligning steering arms with them?

Actually, I've been told now that it might not be seen till Tuesday, first test day.

More black engine cover.

This had better be good at the end. Could someone please just edit the title once there's a car to look at?

It is a bit like a dating website where the only pictures are of the nice looking bits.....

....and then the full horror is revealed when you get to the front..

Is that an admin job? I jest went to edit the first post and there's no option to change the subject line.

Looks like a very abrupt drop down to the nose.
