You'd have to ask one of the mods, I just linked to the pics from the front page story.

Kokey Dokey :) will be nice to get a closer look at it. The front wings are worrying me to be honest... just a bit too wide...

How many front wings will be lost in the first lap of the season? Bets please! :P

Intriguing vortex generators on the front wing end plates.
Odd little kink in the sidepods.
Fancy ruleinterpretation on the mirrors.
Too bad about the rear wing, but not their fault of course.

All in all, much nicer-looking than I had feared. Looking forward to thursday.

The back answers alot of questions for me. I was wondering how they were cooling things without gills and chimneys, considering they've made the sidepod inlets smaller as well! Looks like it all disappears out the back passage now, definitely the traditional way of expelling hot air :P

woah its better looking that i thought. the front actually looks quite stunning.
but i seriously cannot stand such simple body work (i always find those winglets fascinating) and narrow rear wing.

anyways, i didnt know a second element(whatever its called) is allowed on the front wing.

The rear wing uprights seem to be tapered outwards which seems unusual as the lower element will be slightly narrower than the upper element.

Anyone know what the two small inlets are for in the root of the sidepods?

The ones that loves early 90´s car (like me :P ) can perfectly stand such simple body work. Also I must say that the narrow front is nice. What I can´t stand (and I´m sure I never will) is the front wing.

I will go ahead bar555 and make a comparison between Williams and Ferrari designs:
