Sauber C34 Ferrari

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

was this damage from the collision with wolff? It looks like a hell of a lot of damage for cars that aren't running at maximum pace. It kind of reminds me of the damage to bianchi's car in the canadian gp were the rear end was pretty much torn off

so i see they indeed added the extra yellow, looks much better though i feel the mirrors better were left untouched.
and that green on the rear wing isn't really too attractive.

green on rear wing is flow-vis paint. Here is a pic from Barcelona with clean rear wing that is black and white (and you can see traces of green on the DRS actuator)

you're right.

Looks better with more yellow though. Still, that 'extended nose piece' looks like a swollen thumb that got struck by a hammer unfortunately. Could they develop a better one and crash test it? Assume with their difficult situation [ as it seems ] there probably will not be investment in that.

I miss the old sauber color schemes from the 1990,s That Banco do Brasil sponsorship does look a little rushed.
