To be fair... Even the ceo seemed to be under the impression it was the 2016 car.
But yeah, to us part brained seasoned observers it was pretty obvious it was last year's car tarted up.

If I'd known that was the case, gav, I'd have sent in a CV a long time ago

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?
Looks very similar but all I'm really seeing is the livery at this point.
It's difficult to get two comparative shots of this year's car and last because of the angles we have to work with.
Instead, here's my cat. Named after a high-achieving and cutting-edge Anglo-American F1 team of the 70's. I went for an all-black livery to hide the cunning contours and not give away the hidden f-duct which runs lengthways throughout the chassis.

I really liked the early 1994 season Ferrari with the low nose. Not many people put this up there as their favourite Ferrari cars because from '94 to '96 they essentially looked like crimson Thunderbird 2's, but I thought they were lovely.
1995 was definitely the last year Ferrari looked the part, and then things got progressively more fugly from 1996 onwards.

Yeah you're right. What confused me was that the 1996 car had two variants, it launched with a low nose but then they changed it to a raised cone mid-early season. THAT was the car I thought resembled Thunderbird 2. But it's also kinda nice.
Shame it broke down 90% of the time.
