Ross Brawn's departure from Mercedes is pure speculation on the part of some journalists right now.
Even though the current appointments at Mercedes make it ever more top-heavy, none of the serious F1 commentators believe it is necessarily the end for Brawn.

The rear wing seems very low to the ground. Have they changed the rear wing rules? Also, a distinct lack of exhaust exit behind the side pods.
It looks nice though. It seems a lot smoother than last years cars. Fewer bumps and holes all over the place.

I think that last year they made the wing smaller and lower to reduce the downforce. Not sure what they did this year, but it seems that they may have lowered it further as it would might reduce the downforce still further. It seems to be a constant cat and mouse situation in relation to the regulations.

Looks the same as last year's car... except it doesn't seem to have an exhaust due to the new aero/exhaust rules.

Ferrari F138 Launch pictures: http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2013/02/01/f ... -pictures/ Not the prettiest car they've produced, but at least it doesn't have the stepped nose of last year.

I really hope when it gets pressed a little speaker pops up and you can hear him shouting "JENSON! JENSON! Jesus Christ..."
