The AlphaTauri AT02.
Sleek looking livery and I believe also a strong driver pairing. Pierre has already shown what he can do in a good car and Yuki Tsunoda seems destined for greater things according to Mark Hughes. Probably the most talented driver from Japan up to now. Will be very interesting to follow.  |

The new Alfa Romeo C41. A better Ferrari PU for sure so hopefully some good results for Kimi and Gio.

Alpha -Alfa, colours that remind me of yesterday, Alpha was it Osella? or someone else? Alfa is such a beautiful colour - hope they go well this year, wouldn't it be something if Kimi won a race, that would be most amusing
Methinks the 1st test may not be a surprise to see who is quickest but 3rd and 4th may be competitive

The Alfa looks really good!
In the present era, with those runaway dimensions of the F1 cars, it seems to have become more important than ever how the cars are painted; how stripes wrap around them, etc. Perhaps a bit like the discussion (among girls/ladies) of what kind of stripes make you look more slender, and what kind makes you look fat ...

Auto Motor und Sport have (just the other day) published some paint-scheme suggestions made by a designer (Tim Holmes Design). I think they're all excellent; and, comparing with the cars that have been presented so far, they're better. (Just an opinion, of course ...) The shiny finish of the Ferrari is how it should be done - the (supposedly more lightweight) mat-red finish hasn't done them much good anyway ...
Borrowed from Auto Motor und Sport. (Again, it's just studies/images, not the real cars.)

I agree Mikael. I hope Ferrari ditches the matt paint and goes back to a classic red gloss finish.

The new Aston Martin AMR21.
 .. now we've got Italian Racing Red, French Racing Blue, German Racing Silver (uuhh, black) and British Racing Green (Aston green) on the grid. I like that! |

I like that to, doesn't the Aston look better than that pink monstrosity from previous seasons. If colour schemes could win races alone I would back this one, go Sebastian and show them you aren't finished. |

Looks very nice and I hope that it goes as well. Would love to see Seb win. On the latest cover of Motorsport there is a plan view of the new McLaren. These cars are seriously skinny when viewed from the top and look even more so due to their length. They look as skinny as the 1998 cars first did.

A souvenir keychain, bought many years ago at Suzuka. An artist's interpretation of an early 90's car (I believe) - much too long and slender. But it's interesting that the cars somehow - actually - came to look like this ...

The HAAS VF-21.
 It's white like an American race car should be ...with a Russian flavour..  It says M. Schumacher on the cockpit side. |

the cars are certainly getting a good paint job,
Williams aren't off to a great start though, hope it is not a poor omen
