    What's with all this digital rendering stuff? Why do they think they need to show off something ahead of delivering the actual car?

    Is this just pandemic hangover? Or is there some sponsor-driven deadline they are focusing on?

    I like the color of the Aston Martin. As always, it'll be interesting to see how these machines perform.

    But if it is virtual there is no motor so are they really "races"?

    Sorry, couldn't help myself.

    I think it's most probably the latter. They've really pressed hard on
    the ORACLE thing.

    They needed a clean sheet redesign. The cares are way to long and wide. Sitting in the average grandstand seat these new cars will pretty much look like last years. So the real question is how much downforce in the corners/curves has actually been
    lost and can a car trying to overtake stay closer longer without obliterating their front tires.

    You do realise that the vast majority of people watching F1 aren't
    sitting in the grandstands? Just sayin'.
