They probably don't know they're even called the Silver Arrows or that name even exists.The funny thing is Red Bull fans really don't know why a merc would be silver

What's the point of releasing renders when the actual car is so different?2 totally difference cars
Yeah, red bull fans really think they are silver because of second place. That's completely true and not a crappy joke that amazingly succeeded in winding people up.The funny thing is Red Bull fans really don't know why a merc would be silver
They probably also think Ferrari's are red so Max can see them easier when being waved past.
That Horner fella seems like quite the pedantic prat.
It does seem odd doesn't it? It's only been like 1 week apart as well!What's the point of releasing renders when the actual car is so different?
Like you? The post you quoted is obviously a joke and just shit talk.
This will be interesting especially this season, I always found it intriguing finding out what updates teams had brought but in reality all the teams quickly figured it out and the fans were left guessing depending on the media insight.
I wonder how detailed it would be given that a lot of the performance is supposedly going to be around the floor.

Right
What's the point of releasing renders when the actual car is so different?
It must be that the renders and marketing material including sponsors livery had to be signed off earlier vs the development of the car that would be tested on track. Otherwise pointless games - I believe Ferrari even removed parts from the renders behind the nose but then you could see it the next day on the track.
What will be interesting is who will be the first to copy another team.
Alpine has some weird stuff going on. Not sure if renders or actual car yet.
it also has a pinker versionAlpine has some weird stuff going on. Not sure if renders or actual car yet.
What's this monstrosity...Alpine has some weird stuff going on. Not sure if renders or actual car yet.
Or is it this one?
Is this the away kitOr is it this one?
Just saw this: Alpine will run the pink version of the A522 for the first two races of the season to celebrate the new partnership with BWT
Both don't look that great IMO the contrast in the pink and blue doesn't work. Interesting looks like they've gone a different route with the sidepods and the mid-rear section.
Certainly looks like they have rolled the dice.
If it’s the blue one, that car is beautiful.
It will be after a few races. I'm liking it also.
That blue Alpine looks better than I expected. Not bad at all. Not a patch on the Aston or the Ferrari though.
That Alpine looks lovely. Can't root for them now they've appointed that Otmar plum as team principal though.

Split opinion on the Alpine livery it seems. This looks like a super interesting aero design to me. Going to be super interesting.
Video of McLaren on track with some good shots at certain parts - this colour really stands out like a fluorescent matt papaya paint. Imagine DC bearing down on you on the straight if they get their braking to his liking this year.
I'm loving the stance of these cars.
I like it a lot. Really nice colors.
It's beyond tedious two months ago and it's beyond tedious now, i got over the loss against Portsmouth earlier than this ffs..
There is some deserved righteous indignation but mostly descends into a circlejerk of F1 is not fair anymore by Hamilton fans. It was never fair in the first place and it's all the more bizzare from Hamilton fans after winning like gazillion titles in a row. Hamilton lost the title due to consistently terrible decisions by his team, terrific team strategy by Red bull, amazing driving by verstappen and the feck up by the race director. All we hear is brake check. In an year fluctuation may come to believe that Hamilton actually won 2021 championship.
Read through some F1 forums and didn't see such vehement backing for Hamilton elsewhere but maybe I'm looking at the wrong places. Hope the season starts and we just get new topics. I hope the new season is competitive and Hamilton winning it would be superb from a meltdown perspective
False equivalence comparing with a Portsmouth result. You should compare with the Serie A match fixing scandal.
You are missing the point if you believe the indignation is because Hamilton lost out. The continued indignation is because F1 lost out.
As for how the outcome happened last year, what you attribute it to is wholly inaccurate. Both drivers were level, with Hamilton pulling away in the final race despite other questionable decisions from the race director earlier in the season. The single largest factor that decided last year was Masi. Nothing else.
For this year you seem to care more about the outcome causing a "meltdown" rather than the best team / driver winning fair and square. That about sums you up. Your post sounds more like a "Drive to survive fan" than an F1 fan.
Too long didn't read
I wonder when Netflix will tell it's viewers that F1 already had fans before they came up with the "meltdown perspective".
Will let you know as soon as I get the memo from Netflix.
Its a forum, different views of the subject are allowed. You dont like it then ignore it. The most controversial decision in F1's entire history will certainly be discussed again and again. It makes the sport look bad, it puts an asterix against verstappen's title and it has robbed us all of seeing schmachers 7 world championship titles record being broken (for now).
I don't see any Asterix or obelix against verstappens title
Well it's kinda funny to poke those fans who are obviously delusional and than step back and laugh for the day.
Every fecking car is blue these days - does my head in.
So we essentially have the dodgy Force India back on the grid
I said before that the cars we see on launch day 99% of them will not be the car we see on the first race.What's the point of releasing renders when the actual car is so different?
Now I can see the reasons why, its on of the reasons I dont really take much notice.
Even in testing you wont see 100% the season race car.
