pretty cool documentary. Ferrari rarely lets anything like this come out to the public, they normally are the most secret of the f1 teams.

Good watch. Unbelievable amount of work put into that car. It'll be interesting to see how the season plays out, especially once Red Bull and Mercedes get their technology sorted

Wait-Mercedes? They're going to run away with this season? They're technology is the most sorted of all??

And - great watch. I'd also recommend the Mclaren documentary about the mp4-12c development.

Rosberg was dominant in Australia, but I was referring to how Hamilton had a car that went backwards from the start and needed to retire early in the race. Same with Vettel.

Anyways it'll be fun to watch the top guys going at it once the teams get some more time with the new equipment and get everything running smoothly

Really the only thing I don't like about this season besides the funny looking noses is the new engine noise. They should consider putting a speaker on the cars that plays the old engine sounds over the honda civic noise of the new cars.

People complained when we went from V10 to V8 too. While I don't think the sound draws the same emotion as a car screaming at 18k rpm, it is still a very interesting sound. Once everyone gets used to it I am sure it will be fine. I personally like that you hear more of the wheels now, but I would love to see the revs go up a bit, however to do that they would need to increase the fuel, which defeats the point of being more efficient.

meh, it's just the noise. one of the coolest things about F1 is how they keep making all these new rules about the cars and the engineers make new stuff work better than before.
