    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

All new regulations, and some new colours! So far I'm really liking these cars. Red Bull have only shown their livery on an FIA model, so no photos of their car yet.

The cars look way better without extra bits on them.

Whether it will improve the ability to follow another car with less issues, only the start of the season will we know.
 
An interesting new Ferrari, I like the early nineties style livery though!:

I remain unimpressed, feels like the kiddies have been given carte blanche!
But I must say the wheels look bloody awful......:barf:
 
Hey All,

I have to confess I am quite taken by the New Ferrari F1 entry. Really like the deep red with the black. Looks like a lot of out of the box thinking has gone into this car. I always appreciate out of the box thinking. Here is a video of what may be going on with the car aero. Of course it is this aero specialist best guess and as he points out - the plus points of this car may or may not move it to the fore in F1. I'm hoping it does as I do like Ferrari but we shall see. This aero specialist does discuss - in the same way- the other new F1 entries on his utube channel. And who knows what is going on with the PU - hopefully 7 other teams don't gang up on Ferrari again as they did with the legal 2019/2020 Ferrari engine.

Now to see the RedBull entry.

The new Alpine A522:

Which will race in full pink for the first two races:

Today the Red Bull RB18 also broke cover, and it is probably the most extreme design of this season, especially in the sidepod area.

Same here. I long for the days when a "blocky shaped" light blue meant Matra, a wedge meant Lotus 72 and a teardrop nose with a "tea table" on top meant a March 711. Today, at a quick glance, they all look like the same car put through photoshop....
 
The red Bull looks like it fell out of the Ugly Tree hitting every branch on the way down!
Those so-called 'Aerodynamicists' should be shot with ball of their own fecal matter.
At least FIAT have kept a semblance of an open wheel race car with Ferrari.

Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder :biggrin-new: I'm sure when it is fast nobody will care how it looks. Most cars which looked stunning when I was young, look old fashioned now :a1310:

Cheers,

Difficult to say! After so many years of despair with ugly cars I really enjoy what this new regulation has brought. On top of that the liveries are really nice.
