There must be two vans full of technicians and engineers nearby if they hope to actually start the things!

Or, looking at the front wing, perhaps it's the new ultra-fast service from FedEx?

Bella macchina!

I'm not 100% sure but looks like Schumacher's 2004 car.

I found this in central Tokyo last week around the corner from my old apartment in Ferrari store.

The bigger teams build a small number of "display" cars which may or may not even have an engine (vs. just the appearance of an engine). My company has a small sponsorship with one of the F1 teams and we regularly have one of the cars in tradeshow booths, etc. They're always the display cars vs. the real thing. But it's very hard to tell the difference, even for me.

Not saying that's what these cars definitely are, just a possibility.

London F1 (new management) dog and pony show prep - pre British GP?

Wonder what to expect in Austin this year.

I wonder if they parallel parked. After Baku, this would be the only other known indication for using reverse in an F1 car.
