    i'd guess the spanner with the spanner for the wheel nuts :p

    I retract my comment on disguising the halo too... the Williams graphic design crew have made a brilliantly canny decision by increasing the black in the lower half of the tub and bodywork to offset the increased/higher white section, tricking the eye that there's less car visible than there really is. Buy those folks a beer!

    That livrery works quite well with the dark blue & black body work with black Halo
    & they got the right tyres on this time.

    Tomorrow we get Sauber & Renault
    Thursday is Mercedes & Ferrari
    Friday is McLaren

    Yep & then Toro Rosa will reveal there car at the Barcelona testing.
    Not sure about Force India or whatever they end up calling themselves which may be why they haven't had a car launch but probably early next week on line.

    Oh yeah... there’s still insight on their new name is there.

    Wanna speculate?

    Will they just drop the ‘India’? Go with another of VJM’s brands - like Kingfisher or make a clean break?

    I would guess a clean break though I would guess they will try to have Force in there somehow.
