Ditched last years' L-shaped side pods in favour of more traditional ones this year.
You come to the wrong place if you were expecting a two hour floor show.
I'm yet to see the 'clear case for a legal battle' that was hinted at yesterday...
Looks fairly average to me. They have clearly not gone for a maximum air under the nose approach like Caterham, instead opting for a Brawn style uber low nose.

Ah, hang on, just noticed something.....
There is no vertical supports holding the wing onto the nose. It looks to be one moulded piece. Possibility of no centre section of the front wing, instead it being 2 seperate wings sticking out of the side of the nose? Might explain the very side on shot...
Edit: nope, scrap that, better pics show a standard wing setup.
Still failing to see what all the hype yesterday was about...
