Surely we all know the basic 2019 rules changes by now, right? Wider and simpler front wings, larger deeper rear wings, smaller bargeboards – you know the drill.

He makes a great point about how last year’s car already looks obsolete. It’s a funny old thing, F1. Look back at cars from 25, 15, or even five years ago and they look so simple – in some cases almost crude – and yet at the time, they were seen as cutting edge, futuristic designs.
It’s crazy to think that one day, cars like the W10 will end up being viewed in a similar way…
