IMHO Haas = 2/10 Aston Martin = 6/10 Red Bull - 5/10 McLaren = 7/10 Al[ha Touri = 1.5/10 WILLIAMS/, = 5/10, Ferrari, = 8/10 = Yes its Red, as expected, but looks aggressive. And for me the Merc has to be 9.5/10 Stunning 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 The Merc Launch was a definite 10/10, The style, the content, the music, the lighting and the the full presentation LIVE from Silvertone was something I didn't expect. It was great to hear Toto and the Drivers chatting away, and so relaxed. It was good to see the future for F1 and Motor Sport in the Young Driver program, and also the diversity in there as well. The reveal of the new awesome livery was exciting. Yes a definite 10/10 from me. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it did not miss my attention that one of the presenters called the girl "gorgeous" but not any of the lads. Now if that had bee a male presenter he would have been crucified in the media etc 2 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
