A nice sum-up of engine regulation tweaks for the 2018 season.

A lovely regulation changes overview.

Interesting points made, about scope for shark fins and monkey seats relating to exhaust exits.

I like it. Reminiscent of one of the old HRT liveries that I really liked too. Hopefully this one fares better in the performance department!!

If that's what the car looks like come start of winter testing I'd be very surprised. There is very little new on the surface of the car from what I can tell, and it pretty much looks like the car that finished the last season, minus the shark fin. I expect them to do something with the Halo, and I still expect some evolution of the sidepod area. They were really poor last season at re-energising the air for the rear of the car, take away the shark fin and monkey seat and I think it'll be way worse for them. So they need to do something. I heard they have done most of the work under the hood in terms of weight reduction, which is all well and good, and will hopefully mean they can shift ballast around to fix their set up woes of old, however, it looks fundamentally like the same deeply flawed car they had last year.

Be great if the fans could have access to all that realtime data, for free ofc. To be able to watch an on track battle and dual screen it with the bio-metrics.
But considering F1 live timing is costly and results timing & info is nonexistent I really doubt it.
