Has that green colour got a little lighter now or is it just the lights that the car is under making the green look lighter? The lighter green looks . I prefer their 2011 livery, the shade of green was darker and this at least looked more menacing, pity it never performed well.

this year's cars look like tidied up versions of last year's cars, only they forgot to tidy up the front wings. those little sculptures (architectural studies? projected levees?) balanced on each car just in front of the tires are every designer's nightmare.

Seems to be some words going around about Caterhams exhaust.

On the technical side, according to one publication, the CT03 is not lacking in innovation, with one aspect of its exhaust solution already raising eyebrows.
“There is one feature of the Caterham’s exhaust that I don’t think will be there when we get to Melbourne,” said Lotus technical boss James Allison.
Racecar Engineering magazine said the feature in doubt is a ‘flow-conditioner’ in the exhaust channel, which may fall foul of technical regulation 5.8.4.

@scarbs comments on the issue -

@Rturcato83 I'd already seen the exhaust vane, its perfectly legal as it sits under the axis of the exhaust tail pipe

Give them some speed rock to get them spinning

 

[William Levesque]

Speed rock ? The feck ?

I would say power metal, maybe.
