Como diria un buen periodista ingles; "Yet another RED BULL clone"!!!
Este es el Mp4-25, entrare más tarde a evaluarlo y compararlo con el Ferrari. Pero si, la linea de Adrian este año se lleva. A ver que resultados les dara a los equipos. Podemos observar por primera vez, y como el mismo Lewis Hamilton puntualizo, los nuevos neumaticos delanteros. También he observado que Jenson no ha modificado su casco y vuelve al JB azul británico de siempre. Observando de "cerca" este nuevo "bichaco", os tengo que decir que traerá cola, hay elementos que están en esas ahora llamadas "lagunas". Al parecer todos los equipos están explorándolas. Ferrari tambien, y al igual que los rojos los "platas" no han dejado hacer fotos al difusor. Lo podéis ver en la ultima foto.
Y finalmente os dejo las especificaciones de este coche tan...., ¿como llamarlo? ¿FEO?
