Wait, so this is VCARB's regular livery for 2025? Not sure I like a predominantly white scheme.

2025 liveries (not the 2025 car) are being revealed today.

I hate seeing Carlos with Williams. I do t mind Williams, but I just want to see him winning so badly and that ain't happening in a Williams car.

I'm pretty sure this dj "performing" before the Apline reveal isn't actually doing anything.

Ahhhh, got it. Now I get why I was hearing that the teams that were doing early testing were not supposed to show the new liveries, because apparently there is a new event where they all reveal their liveries. I had heard some chatter about this event but I didn't really understand what it was for. I'm at work so not watching it.

I’m not a fan of Williams new name, Atlassian Williams Racing. Don’t like that them and Ferrari have recently had to add title sponsors. Does that leave only McLaren without a title sponsor?

I just read this amazing (hilarious) article about the nightmare that Vowles stepped in to when he joined Williams. It helps to explain some of the disastrous aspects of their 2024 season.

autosport.com/f1/news/goodbye-20000-cell-excel-spreadsheet-how-williams-new-f1-car-build-system-works/

quote:

“The big change is we are using modern day tools that are the benchmark for what we need to be doing,” Vowles added.

“Basically, what we call ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), MRP (Material Requirements Planning), PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) – the systems used to know what parts you have, where they are, and what the materials you have [for them], etc.

“We're using benchmark systems [now]. There's still work to do, because once you introduce that, there's an amount of pain that comes with it.

“So, we're not firing on all cylinders yet, but that will happen across the course of 2025.

So yes, while they have the new systems in place, 2025 is still a year of transition as they get everyone up to speed. Just in time for 2026 development.

I wonder if this upgrading of the internal systems is how they first got connected with Atlassian.

No one else has commented on Ferrari, so I'll say it. While there were numerous boring reveals, and I think just one big change (that VCARB is growing on me), the biggest disappointment to me was Ferrari. That big white slash, which seems to only function to make the blue HP logo more visible, ruins the car. And the details on the driver suits look bad. The white stripes on the sides that only go halfway up the upper leg? That thin line that goes up the front of the arms and across the chest? Yikes.

Stupid sticky at the bottom On the MSB every day and still didn't notice the thread. I just assume the threads stickied at the bottom are like the 2023 Australian Open thread or something.

That is bad arse imo. Could definitely just pass as the main red bull car though.
