I said the same about the Halo to be honest, hardly notice it now
Very R18 TDI Sportscar scheme.
The aeroscreen looks a bit crap because it was added to the car after it was initially designed. I’d imagine a car designed with it in mind would be better integrated and would look much better.
Alfa looks best. Shame too many red cars really.
Can't tell with the Williams. The back lighting is too strong to know what it really looks like.
Get the sense it's going to be a bit meh in real lighting.
I didn't even bother looking at rbr one. I assume it's same? I don't really like it myself. Never have

They were suffering with a lack of rear downforce last season, so I'm guessing it's aimed at improving that - much more the Ferrari concept than the Red Bull early outwash that most of the midfield ended up copying last season.
A better picture of the Williams.
I'm sorry, but when they said one of the sponsors is Stephens Ink, this is the first thing I thought of. https://londonist.com/london/museums-and-galleries/stephens-ink-museum-finchley

F1 has become a bit sad and pathetic now pre-season.
You used to actually get next gen cars on launch - that died out
You used to then actually get next gen cars in testing - thats now died out
Now you only get to see the actual new car at the first race!
Pretty much ruined any pre-season F1 for me.

Those side by side shots are great. All the changes they've made 'look' like they'll make it faster.ANALYSIS: What we learned from a first look at the brand-new Alfa Romeo C43 | Formula 1®

Doesn't look bad doesn't look great. A bit plain for me.
Looking forward to the alpine with its pink and blue. Looked so good last year but I do miss the yellow Renault. That stood out so well!

That seems perfectly on-brand for Williams; stuffy and a bit dull.
So the alpha Romeo was just a show car, they are auctioning it off. They say it depicts the true car but if that was true wouldn't some of the bits be useable on the actual car?

I suppose that depends on what it was made out of. It might be that most of it is too heavy to race.
I’d be surprised if it even contained an engine or power train at the reveal and it’s also highly unlikely to be sold with one, otherwise Mercedes, Renault or Red Bull would be very happy to buy it and pick the power train apart.
