Yes, it looks very F2/F3-ish.

Ecclestone now chiming in; (wish the troll wouldn’t tbh), that Horner should resign as Team Principal at RB. Answers later in the week per reports, but 8 hours in front of an independent lawyer must have been pretty awful for Horner.

It is a similar look to their old RedBull Cola livery it just isn't as sophisticated, so thus a little underbaked.

Gotta agree- used to love the old Toro Rosso liveries back in the day...

Will say the Aston looks pretty damned good in the pix! Just hope it goes as well as it looks, and makes Fred happy.

And pre-season testing isn't that far off!!

You nailed it - that's the biggest problem. It just doesn't look up to F1 par.

Too bad the Indy car rules package doesn't allow the teams to design their own bodywork to make the cars look different. At least in F1 the cars visually look different within the rules package.

Looks good. Hope it can keep up with the RB. Wonder why Ferrari goes with a much smaller airbox opening than the others.

I am no expert but it looks like Ferrari handles their cooling differently than some others. The Ferrari side pods are not as dramatically undercut so they might have more radiators pack in the sides so they don't need a large top intake as other teams who route cooling air through the top and have smaller sidedpod volume.
