I really like the livery. It has Rothmans livery written all over it. Shame they don't get the latest Ferrari PU, but have to settle for the 2016 version of the PU. That thing looks sexy.

It looks like you are talking about the reflection of vane on the sidepod surface which makes it look like a split surface.

they put all in the side pods to keep the airbox out of the way of RW

those cars are so long, they should have 4 Rear wheels.

Bargeboards have a rather interesting design. Ferrari/STR-style slotted floor too.

Are you guys talking about the anomaly below? Looks like an image manipulation to me. I'm curious how it looks like IRL.

The rules regarding the roll hoop were changed and required the hoop to be fatter and shorter, which reduced the positive effect of this.

With the trend placement of coolers in the airbox and a turbo engine being less reliant on ram-effect I can imagine Sauber aimed for a bit of versatility in this area

Livery aside, I don't agree with some comments that the car looks "basic" and is "disappointing". Actually if you look closely there a lot of highly refined details on the car. It's a huge step forward for Sauber and you can clearly see they spend a lot of development time on it. I'm quite impressed.
