Yet again you have been a busy boy Jeff, excellent shots and nice timing with being in the stand for the Renault crash. Not sure on these T wings, and i do wish we had some more gloss paint work out there....I'm still lost on how a flat finish is apparently faster.

Unbelievable access and quality. Taken for the modeler, it is apparent. (I sound like Yoda)

Thanks a lot!! Beautiful shots, and you have captured details I haven't seen yet in the tech blogs. One question: is the Ferrari red brighter this year as it seems from the pictures?

Wow, that sure was enjoyable!!!

Thanks Jeff. Love seeing the details. That Benz sure has some funky details in the front and rear suspensions/hubs/brakes areas.

Started looking and well spent way more time looking than I thought I would.
Fantastic images! The Mercedes does not even look like a car! WOW
Certainly a nightmare from a modeling perspective to deal with all the body work and such.
