Toyota are already testing there, and the TF109 already have some differences from the car they launched at Thursday, doesn't look too bad IMO, it looks like extremely long

I thought that shark fins were out for this season. It may be an interim feature.



Williams and proud of it.

KERS location has nothing to do with the sign, it only advices that car is using KERS

Teams were talking about putting a lot of it in the fuel cavity. That may restrict the tank range and lead to more pit stops. Maybe its the trade-off for getting the weight as far forward as possible.

Your answer is in Sam Michael's words, posted in another thread :


"Even by the time the car is launched it is out of date," explained Technical Director Sam Michael.

"By that we mean that some parts on it have already been rendered obsolete by other parts developed in the wind tunnel since it was released from design for manufacture."

They should switch venues if possible then.

Track time is imperative this winter.

In second picture Toyota doesn't have shark fin I think?

And yes, shark fins are allowed this season too.
