Mercedes W05 Launch Thread

Excellent :) Was worried after seeing that teaser but that is definitely the best looking of the bunch, now just need to see Lewis sliding it over the finish line first.
 
It's not the nicest looking F1 car I've ever seen but damn is it a lot better than any of the others so far. :)

E: Just seen the RBR which isn't bad either.
 
Nice looking car tbh, but why out of all the cars does the Merc seem to have a snow plough looking front wing? I've thought this in previous seasons too, maybe the colour scheme accentuates that effect.
 
Doesn't look bad at all, the horns aren't great but not too bad, from the teaser shot I thought they were the start of a weird nose a la the McLaren which I think looks awful, so thank god it wasn't that. The wing/nose connection is easily the best on the grid, but the steep nose still looks a little odd.

Are there any good comparisons up yet comparing different cars side by side? Is it just me or does the Merc look like a very busy design, lots of bits sticking out all over, more obvious due to paint job than others or more bits sticking out all over the place?
