Is this the away kitOr is it this one?
Both don't look that great IMO the contrast in the pink and blue doesn't work. Interesting looks like they've gone a different route with the sidepods and the mid-rear section.The Renault-owned team has switched to a blue and pink livery for 2022 after bringing on former Aston Martin partner BWT as its title sponsor.
The team will use a “flipped” version of the livery for the first two races of the season.

Certainly looks like they have rolled the dice.Both don't look that great IMO the contrast in the pink and blue doesn't work. Interesting looks like they've gone a different route with the sidepods and the mid-rear section.
It will be after a few races. I'm liking it also.If it’s the blue one, that car is beautiful.
I like it a lot. Really nice colors.Haas are still very much the standout ugly ducklings on the grid.
It's beyond tedious two months ago and it's beyond tedious now, i got over the loss against Portsmouth earlier than this ffs..Jesus people are still banging on about last season?!
False equivalence comparing with a Portsmouth result. You should compare with the Serie A match fixing scandal.It's beyond tedious two months ago and it's beyond tedious now, i got over the loss against Portsmouth earlier than this ffs..
There is some deserved righteous indignation but mostly descends into a circlejerk of F1 is not fair anymore by Hamilton fans. It was never fair in the first place and it's all the more bizzare from Hamilton fans after winning like gazillion titles in a row. Hamilton lost the title due to consistently terrible decisions by his team, terrific team strategy by Red bull, amazing driving by verstappen and the feck up by the race director. All we hear is brake check. In an year fluctuation may come to believe that Hamilton actually won 2021 championship.
Read through some F1 forums and didn't see such vehement backing for Hamilton elsewhere but maybe I'm looking at the wrong places. Hope the season starts and we just get new topics. I hope the new season is competitive and Hamilton winning it would be superb from a meltdown perspective
Too long didn't readFalse equivalence comparing with a Portsmouth result. You should compare with the Serie A match fixing scandal.
You are missing the point if you believe the indignation is because Hamilton lost out. The continued indignation is because F1 lost out.
As for how the outcome happened last year, what you attribute it to is wholly inaccurate. Both drivers were level, with Hamilton pulling away in the final race despite other questionable decisions from the race director earlier in the season. The single largest factor that decided last year was Masi. Nothing else.
For this year you seem to care more about the outcome causing a "meltdown" rather than the best team / driver winning fair and square. That about sums you up. Your post sounds more like a "Drive to survive fan" than an F1 fan.
Its a forum, different views of the subject are allowed. You dont like it then ignore it. The most controversial decision in F1's entire history will certainly be discussed again and again. It makes the sport look bad, it puts an asterix against verstappen's title and it has robbed us all of seeing schmachers 7 world championship titles record being broken (for now).It's beyond tedious two months ago and it's beyond tedious now, i got over the loss against Portsmouth earlier than this ffs..

Well it's kinda funny to poke those fans who are obviously delusional and than step back and laugh for the day.False equivalence comparing with a Portsmouth result. You should compare with the Serie A match fixing scandal.

So we essentially have the dodgy Force India back on the gridJust saw this: Alpine will run the pink version of the A522 for the first two races of the season to celebrate the new partnership with BWT
I said before that the cars we see on launch day 99% of them will not be the car we see on the first race.What's the point of releasing renders when the actual car is so different?
Agree. It's always been like this too. Why spend all your energy and money to develope something just to release 4k videos for the competition to copy it... We won't know what's what until Bahrain.I said before that the cars we see on launch day 99% of them will not be the car we see on the first race.
Now I can see the reasons why, its on of the reasons I dont really take much notice.
Even in testing you wont see 100% the season race car.
I quite like it.Split opinion on the Alpine livery it seems. This looks like a super interesting aero design to me. Going to be super interesting.
I agree, first race should be the first time you see a 100% car.Agree. It's always been like this too. Why spend all your energy and money to develope something just to release 4k videos for the competition to copy it... We won't know what's what until Bahrain.
OK "drive to survive".Too long didn't read
Hi Christen Horner welcome to our forum.I don't see any Asterix or obelix against verstappens title
Maybe he should ask for a name change as well as stagnation0161 would be a more fitting name for him, it's nearly 3 months he's going on about the same topic never changing.Too long didn't read
Yes, we should just forget corruption and move on. Enjoy the show.Maybe he should ask for a name change as well as stagnation0161 would be a more fitting name for him, it's nearly 3 months he's going on about the same topic never changing.

The Masi/FIA news is new. Do you not think people should talk about it?It's beyond tedious two months ago and it's beyond tedious now, i got over the loss against Portsmouth earlier than this ffs..

Move on man it’s a sport you are stuck in an endless loop for 3 months, You are constantly regurgitating the same info over and over again, it’s not going to change what happened.Yes, we should just forget corruption and move on. Enjoy the show.
Considering the FIA have just changed the whole structure and the rules (last week) following last seasons cluster feck. I'd say it's a pretty big topic for F1.
