And a first look at the new Haas VF-16:





Yip, more black :| but I actually like this look. Agree we could do with more bright colors on the grid though.

Your best choice, if you know someone with the DSTV premium package (with PVR enabled), is to get their login details for the dstv website and use that to log in on Super Sport.

If they haven't created an account yet, you can create one with their smartcard number (or ask them to create one and give you the login details).

Alternatively, you can try http://www.vipleague.ws/. It works, but the quality isn't always that good and there are quite a lot of ads to get through, but it will get the job done.

thanks will try them when season starts

So what was that yellow and black leak all about? just a fake?

So what was that yellow and black leak all about? just a fake?

The "Ferrari yellow" rumour came out of Italian media I think. The designs that came out of it were all concepts by fans. I think Haas wanted to distance themselves from the "just a Ferrari B-Team" tag and decided to avoid the yellow scheme.

Personally, I really liked this one:

 

[Wyvern]

Force India

Renault

Redbull

Haas

 

[Weasley]

thanks for all the nice pics.

 

[Wyvern]

Always a pleasure

 

[Wyvern]

A plain Torro Rosso was spotted on the track

 

[Wyvern]

New Haas car strickened with reliability issues as they are still set to complete a installation lap. Rumor also has it that Haas has also broken down after just one lap yesterday which was suppose to be a filming day. ‪#‎CY‬

 

[Dohc-WP]

would have preferred the classic renault colour scheme, too many dark coloured cars imo (probably to hide some of the aero bodywork features from competing teams

 

[Dohc-WP]

hate these droopy front ends on the cars

 

[mottamort]

hate these droopy front ends on the cars

Still beats the dildos...

 

[Wyvern]

Dochie I agree, I am not a fan of the droopy ant eater noses. We just have no choice currently thanks to the regulations.
