    F1 Testing - New Midland Livery (56k Warning)

    Went to F1 testing yesterday and just thought I'd share a few pictures of the new Midland F1 livery:

    150mm, 1/125 @ F/14


    200mm, 1/500 @ F/7.1


    200mm, 1/500 @ F/7.1


    Comments welcome, I think the new design is very striking!

    Thanks for looking,

    Tom

    The nose seems quite high - or is that just me?

    Looking good. Seems they've gone to town on the aerodynamics too.

    Nice shots too, not the easiest thing to capture clearly.

    Seems a very nice design, certainly unique!

    The nose seems very high and the tail very low, I'm interested in how that performs.

    I had to turn down tickets for VIP hospitality testing today since I'd go a gig to engineer with James Blunt's drummer. Gutted.

    Good photos though.

    A tiny bit faster around the corners than the Super Aguri, and quite a bit faster on the straights

    Looks a lot better, but still looks like a back runner (looks bulky?).

    Good advertising as well, Ive only ever heard of one of those sponsors.

    Cheers for the comments on the photos. Going to be interested to see how they get on as both them and Super Aguri are promising big things.

    Someone has to prop the grid up don't they

    At a guess the team will be renamed to Spyker at the end of this season. Seeming as they bought midland and you can now see there name on the car.

    Still, nice pics. I was there on Tuesday and there wasn't much running at all. Trying to pan with F1 cars is bloody hard.
