I'd have to compare directly but I think the Ferrari looks great

But Mercedes > Ferrari in terms of watch sponsors

Ferrari is Ferrari but that black block on the side for the Ceva ad is out of place

If you follow the f1 instagram they post 2022 Vs 2023 comparisons

The bare carbon fiber look is awesome. Pretty surprised that Merc is carrying on with their sidepod-less design.

same. I thought the Zero sizing side pod design was compromising their car last year..

surprised they stuck with it.

The Merc design is a "less sidepod" design rather than a zero sidepod or sidepod-less design. They have a sidepod, it's just reduced.

Last year near the end they really seemed to start to dial it in but I think it was more about the underbody aero effecting their performance than the sidepod. It was just that the sidepod was something we would see all the time.
