It´s horrible, I know, I hate that nose, but i do not know if it is real, because if you remember the 2004 williams, the dessigner of that car, Antonia Terzi, worked in Ferrari in 2001, i dont know.

The Marlboro on the rear wing is real though.

Never mind the image itself, it's fake because Ferrari never built and tested it.

If you look closely you can see it is where the wing to nose attatchments would be.

I see no reason to edit the rear, but tbh thats one of the first things that would have suggested to me its fake.

Couldn´t be a reason that the car was with non-tobacco liveries?

Todt said then, that they tried that design on the wind tunnel, but they coulnd't see the gains.

It looks like a fake for me too. It seems that the wing to nose attatchments's base is too bright, compared to the wing itself (with shadows) and doesn't fit properly.

Anyway it was a nice try I think... although this kind of nose is very ugly!;)

if you look at the Marlboro of schumi's helmet and then at the Marlboro on the wing you can totally see its edited... the wing looks so bright and also if you look at the wing attachment of our right and then it looks on top of the car...

Fake

Why looking at tiny details in the pic to discover fakeness when we all know Ferrari never tested something like that and the pic therefore is fake?

indeed.

although the rear wing Marlboro looks edited too, the real Marlboro used a font which had highlights and a sort of 3D effect.

you can't just copy another teams' wing and attach it to your own car and expect it to work. the wing Williams used was only a part of a whole design philosophy that included the keel, bargebards, suspension etc. so no other team can just copy the wing alone and hope it works (which is unlikely without changing lots of other parts too).

Yeah Williams developed that to counteract some problem with the twin keel suspension design (Mclarens solution was an extremely thin and low nose). Ferrari however, ran with the standard single keel suspension design and hence would find no benifit from switching to this configuration. That said Brawn did say they were looking at something similar at the time, although I suspect they were looking at the general twin keel design after the Williams had been so quick in 2003.
