Ferrari F138

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Anything related to a specific race should go in the appropriate race thread.

A quick reminder that the car threads are a haven for exploring the actual features of the actual car.

We have other threads for team & race conversations.

Looks nice. Although I'm no fan of the red paint on the front and rear wing. They finally add some black again, but on the wrong places... :(

Are those strakes on the end of the endplate of the RW pointing outwards?

Interesting that they chose to show their new rear wing at the launch. I guess they figure a couple of days doesn't make a big difference.

Scarbs is saying it's a modesty panel, but I'm not so sure. Look at how much is missing underneath the nose.
