Think I'm alone in loving the new shaped cars, so much cleaner, less aero clutter and all the better for it

Pick of the bunch so far for me is easily the Ferrari F1-75, looks stunning, wishing everyone at Maranello a few race wins but not too many

Loving the 2022 black banded steel wheel look but Ferrari really need to get some BBS gold mesh wheel graphics on their car

Exclusive PPOT rumour news, I was told by a F1 technical director (not Binotto) Ferrari will be the team to beat, makes a lot of sense as last years neck and neck championship fight will have weakened both Mercedes and Red Bull's focus on the 2022 rule changes, won't be too long before we find out for real



Hass could be the dark horse this year with a reasonable climb up the grid, the technical side has been significantly strengthened with a very strong leadership team, lots of good Ferrari people have transferred across, my old boss (best boss I've ever had), a few ex-colleagues/friends from my Ferrari F1 skunks works days and a very experience aero head I know well

Interesting article linking Porsche with Redbull when the new engine regs are introduced. If this partnership is confirmed think I'll try to get in on the fun, would be very cool to be part of a Porsche race car project

Mercedes and McLaren look like super model sized but the Aston Martin looks like a size 16



My F1 work stops end of this month but will race on until the end of 2025 so I'll carry on rooting for Red Bull and Alpha Tauri until I'm trying to beat them working somewhere else
