The Alpine colour scheme certainly makes an impact with it's pink and blue and having the smaller sponsors all in a line going down on the nose, I notice Eni (Enichem) is on there and on the engine cover that used to sponsor Ferrari team back in late eighties.

A$$pine has always been my least favorite color scheme of the new era. Maybe of all time

Can't think of an uglier one but my memory sucks also.

The flag of Flanders is of a rampant Lion in the upper half of Belgium and the flag of Wallonia is a rooster or cockerel depicting the French community in the bottom half of the country.

They say ...It was just the test days and that means nothing . But the teams showed what they currently have reached during the winter break .
And so far , it looks like Ferrari has reached a lot (!)

Red Bull and the RB21 ?
The Red Bull test was a bad surprise and it wasn't sandbagging . They have to look where they can find 0.4 sec. in the next 10 days for the Australian GP ....
In other words : They won't sleep well (!)

I have no doubt they will get there. You sure they aren't sandbagging

Good teams usually do when they have something hidden in their pocket...cough...cough...MB of the past for example.

Red Bull admit to RB21 'downgrade' => https://racingnews365.com/red-bull-a...rb21-downgrade

The '2025 RB21 has 'still some '2024 "setup gremlins" . And it wasn't easy for Liam Lawson to drive with the RB21.
The Red Bull atmosphere (vibe) turned into tension because they know very well that the clock is ticking...
And they know that 0.4 sec. is a sea of time (!) Just like in 2024 ,the Papaya car is the car to beat .
Not sure how the FIA will respond to the (cheating)! McLaren, Mercedes and Ferrari flexible mini DRS wing ...
All the flexible frontwings will be banned in race 9 (Spain)

Liam Lawson
