FIA Formula One 2018 |OT| Halo: Racing Evolved
- Thread starter Aiii
- Start date
Well, it is a wing, it just isn't there for downforce, it is to guide the air and stabilize it so other parts (main wing) can create more downforce later on :)
That said, it is a thing of beauty.
Great livery, enough changes on the aero, hopefully it will run fast :)
Seriously, it will be really dissapointing if they return to the old livery after showing this one.
Those side pods look very sleek...
T-wing above the engine air intake?

If only there was a colored item on the car, like on the top of it, that's easily identifiable.
That's how you unlock the emotional support counsellor minigame, right?
On paper it should be quite possible to have the halo flagged such that if in first-person mode, you can have a 'window' through it where you can tweak the opacity.
That'd be core software functionality, though, not sure a mod would manage it.
You shouldn't have to look at the T-cam to identify the driver, the helmets should be clear and definable enough as is. Like.. that's the reason they limited driver helmet changes. So people wouldn't get confused.
So they put giant black bars in front of the helmets. Genius.

That Newey work around the Halo mounting points (where the Citrix logo is)

(I think we're going to be ok with the Halo.)
Is it just me or is the car ride height very high? Seems to be running with a lot of rake too.
I know it is just a temp livery, but I don't like it. I was hoping since there is a more prominent Aston Martin sponsorship/partnership we would see some British Racing Green back on the grid.

It would just be typical F1 if the introduction of a safety device was exploited to gain an aero benefit, love it (not the halo though...)
They should assign numbers to the drivers and put them on the car. I bet that would help.

And give fines to teams that don't put them in a easily noticeable place with a big enough font.
True but with that in mind, the front wing still has a lot of ground clearance. Was just a demo run too, so I doubt it was anywhere near to a race setup.
Nice and tasteful livery. I'm also tired with the matte finish that Redbull run with, dull and boring.

So now the goalpost moves from being easily identifiable at a glance to them not having helmets at all?
Kids in 10 years can still remember pretty helmets, even though the drivers change the designs once a year and have speciality helmets each year as well.
I.. didn't say any of that? It was a jokey comment about T-cams becoming the defacto method of telling who a driver is.
What? That matte finish is beautiful and I would love for more teams to run with it.
Grosjean's new helmet.
Now imagine if the drivers would pick a unique font and style for their number, to make them even more distinguishable. I bet it would look pretty good.
I have a feeling xrnzaas only looked at the preview...
It's a video, it then adds all sorts of generic crap, until you end up with this:

Yeah I love how raw the current power units sound. It's such a shame the FOM broadcast feed doesn't represent them well at all.
