Alonso's clothing company must be doing really well for it to be present on 4 corners of the car and even the rear wing.

Morning session done


For reference Honda used 2 PUs on day 1 in 2017 and completed just 27 laps. Already crushed the lap total and roughly 20kph higher on top speed.

For reference, Honda couldn't design an oil tank that would perform it's duties under operating conditions last year. Glad they learned that lesson.

Never realized how much the white Santander bits ruined the livery. Looks so good now, even with the thong in place.

RB testing thong aero. It is really a shame we won't have any Brazilians under the thong...



Sidepods on the RB14 look so tiny

Just noticed the McLaren rear wing endplate. Easier to see without the rear wheel.

No, that was after the wheel fiasco. It looks like it was a broken axle based on the part Fred brought back with him.
