FIA is calling it a "vanity cover." Whatever it's called I'm glad to see the demise of the stepped nose as that was way too fugly. The intake on this car is interesting. Forza Ferrari!

I've seen the pitot tubes be put up high before but this is ridiculous.
Not sure what this test structure is for other than getting clear air data?

that looks retarded, i'm sure it wont be there and just for data acquisition.

On another note, this really shows the new intake and it looks awesome. This car definitely looks good!

Exclamation Ferrari bring back designer Rory Byrne to work on 2014 car

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula-one/21411177

Curious to see how this works out, all of the recent F1 cars that won championships for Ferrari were designed by Bryne.
