Hard to be sure as the image is blurry, but it looks like the SF16-H diffusor has more squared off corners using the full allowed width, similar to last years Red Bull, the SF15-T had more curved corners. This should increase the expansion area and turn the flow harder. The trick is to keep the flow from stalling.

Such a shame it is every year less and less red....

Don't know why?!?!?

**FerrariF60** · 21st February 2016, 17:17

off TOPIC.

i just seen an interview with James Allison in Italian.....WOW....i am REALLY impressed at how well he speaks Italian and NOt only that, also how FLUENT he in in speaking it.
i for one did NOT know that he speaks so well Italian...no wonder he's admired so much by everyone in Maranello as well as in Italy

No worries mate. We had white in the past to.
I think this year's white around the cockpit is due to some kind of deal with Marlboro. At least the white blends in very fine with the red.

**Gianlu27** · 21st February 2016, 18:00

I have made a comparison/analysis of the new Ferrari if you want to read :)

There're also many pics :)

Hmm, yeah, you got a point about the black. There is no reason at all to use black colors.

The black part which is at the rear is unpainted, it's just black carbon fiber, and unpainted carbon fiber helps with the heat dissipation. That's why in previous years we also had a black part at the rear of the car. And the black part around the cockpit is apparently for the Hublot logo, as Hublot's official logo is also white letters on black background:

Was there before, hublot logo, without black background... Money drills where persons can't!!! Just wandering what will happen when tomorrow some company with pink or yellow or light blue approaches Ferrari...?

any testing feeds please ..

**mizf1** · 22nd February 2016, 05:32

Hopefully we can get some serious mileage across the board.

Also HAAS, Sauber can rake up decent mileage as it all helps with data gathering/ developement for our new engine

It's hideous. May be the ugliest car of the 2000's.

As long as it wins (a lot)...

Personally, I'm a fan of the look. The red and white reminds me of the Ferrari 312T cars that were my first memories of formula 1.

Yeah, I like this new retro livery a lot too. It looks fantastic.

Sadly. true. To my taste

**The Architect** · 23rd February 2016, 08:03

Retro livery executed very badly. It's quite embarrassing to see a bad GT car livery on an F1 car. The nose is quite repulsive; it reminds me of the Caterham (updated) nose from a few years back.

Erm...2004 Williams FW26, 2008 Honda RA108, 2009 Renault R29 to name a few.

What?! You can't possibly be serious? Because that is just total rubbish and you know it. The SF16-H looks very beautiful with this new retro livery, and most people agree with that. All the polls on the internet where people have been asked whether they like the new Ferrari look or not have shown that "YES" most people like it, for example on one poll where more than 1200 people voted there were 79% of votes for "YES - I like it" and on another poll there were 77% of votes for "YES". And I've even seen merc fanboys saying that this Ferrari livery is beautiful and cool. So it's just you, stefa, and some others that don't like it, but the majority opinion is definitely very positive.
