Tazio Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Driver numbers are coming out now as well. Mainly through hints on Twitter, Jensen Button tweeted "two little ducks" today so we can guess what number he'll have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame more teams don't go for black as the main colour. Car looks good, though you only see it from the side so you can't see what's guaranteed to be a stub nose.

Looks more like a 2008 car with the double level front wing. The "wheel covers" at the back could be the flare ups and vents around the back end of the sidepods blocking the wheels. I could be wrong.

The "wheel covers" at the back could be the flare ups and vents around the back end of the sidepods blocking the wheels. I could be wrong. It is the 2008 car. You can just about see the wings on either side of the Air box, plus flares in front of the rear tyres and the 'bridge' on the front wing. That and the livery.
