According to a French F1 site called toilef1.com, they're official Renault pictures which were briefly on the official website this morning by accident, and then taken down quickly.

that's bloody gorgeous. the best one yet, i hope it's the actual one. the red looks awesome against the yellow and black. reminds me a little of the original and best '97 jordan.

the new sauber is launched at 1:30pm at valencia today.. is the renault the same time?

renault launch at 16:30 at valencia (spanish hour)

Yes, so for those confused with time zones, the Sauber launch is in 40 minutes, and the Renault one is 2 hours after that, I believe.

Hopefully that Renault livery is correct, they could go from worst to best livery on the grid!

Not a bad looking car, quite similar to the late season BMW of last year.

Disappointed not to see any sponsors yet, as I said yesterday, hopefully they can find a few major sponsors.

And the funniest thing is that they kept the name. BMW Sauber F1 Team - Ferrari :D

There are red parts as well...

Not showing much effort, livery wise. Looks like they've just ripped the logos off the BMW and painted the blue to black.

those are two different cars i think. the second one clearly has no black on the side pods..

Hope there some japanese sponsor

Interesting wheels, looks like the old mid-90s designs.

i'm confused. they look like two different cars.

need some hi-res photos!

Can't help feeling that this season is actually going to be a complete mid-field shambles.

Aye, this looks extremely unprofessional. The team name is a joke, and the car has the BMW livery but with the branding removed. Brawn did much better than this last year, and they had less time to prepare than Sauber's had.

not much different from the last then
