I see a lot people worried about paint when they should be worried by a clever rear suspension design by McClaren.

In the words of Winston Wolf:

There is still 10 days of testing and a long season ahead of us.

If that is the case then the joyful cheering here has been premature and wasting of two testing days with Renault/RBR resources is nothing. We'll see.

Actually pretty good if you ask me,so maybe they wont get a special iteration to modify it.

We can understand then why Ferrari had chosen to paint with this polymer such a sensitive area : better heat evacuation, and a sensible weight reduction.

Can you imagine a dialogue between Kimi and Fernando:
Alonso:Where this smell is coming from?
Kimi:I have no Idea!
Alonso:Kimi,your feet just stink!Why dont you wear socks anymore?
Kimi:I had to choose between a diet or no underwear,Weight reduction you know.
Alonso:you are disgusting!
Kimi:Leave me alone i know what i am doing!

Let me put it another way: if in a fairytale someone comes up to you and say we GUARANTEE you WCC but the car must be ALL black you would say NO??? and after that you would say you're tifosi????
after all bunch of you guys cried before car revealing "if its fast and if it wins we dont care how it looks!" and what is it now????

You can always explain it away to the media by saying you are color blind

Gary Anderson again repeats that our car is $§%&
" The Ferrari looks very similar to how it was in previous years. If anything gives up, it's the rear end that's losing out on corner entry and exit, which is not a good characteristic."

Does he really hate us so much or what? :)

Can not imagine if there's at least one team that doesn't have a problem like that now. I mean, how is it possible not to have these problems with these regs/engine?

What he said about our car in 2012 and 2013 was simply true. So i guess he knows what he says.

Ferrari in 2013 had the best car in the first few races.

Right,but an oversteering car is not a bad car,as Coultard somewhere said"Often competitive F1 cars are more difficult to drive than slow ones because they are on the edge,and they can be twitchy or snappy",for example Hamilton loves snappy cars.As for the F2012 well quite easy to say it was slow,a dog of a car on the contrary the F138 was quite good.He is good at pointing fingers at other designers,but he himself was never a great one,he even resigned in 1998 when Mike Gascoyne joined Jordan because the car was a dog,and they had back then a consistent budget,maybe like Lotus Renault today.
