Good news IMO. Nice to see a another new driver who's been knocking on the door for a while on the grid.

Like the colour scheme too. Very retro, and nice to see old school factory colours on something other than a Ferrari. Smiley

As for the Sauber, nice - hopefully it'll look a little less boring by Bahrain - then again, it might remain as blank as the Brawns did. Interesting diffuser - the "solid block" type. Obviously so cunning cleverness being hidden for now. Smiley Grin

the sauber is beautifully simple.
The renault, glad they've brought the yellow and black colours back. The Brawn style sidepods look nice

Just like magic, the Merc:

and quality journalism by the BBC covering the launch of the W01 (nice photo, shame all it shows of the new car behind MSC's ugly mug is the blurred airbox! Losers, can't believe we pay for them!) Grin

and the Toro Rosso:

Just like magic the rumor mill has kicked into gear already after only an hour:

Mclaren are rumored to be running an "illegal" diffuser in the eye of some teams.
the Sauber looks so good BMW will regret selling the team, ala Honda/Brawn last year.
Ferrari are already designing a new car because the F10 is completely useless on the new tyres.

Gotta love the knee jerk reaction of the huddled masses of the autosport forum. (and the italian media in the case of the ferrari story)

This years Diffusers are just incredible.
Mclarens:

Ferrari's:
http://motorsport.nextgen-auto.com/gallery/pictures/2010/f1/test-valencia-02fev/...

Considering they are banned from next year, I hate to imagine how much money has been spent on coming up with these. So much for cost savings.

Mercedes: Looks quite basic compared to last years, let alone the competions.

Rumour has it one team (Renault I think) has exploited the rules a bit more than most and have a triple deck diffuser. Don't quoite me on it but I'm sure I read it somewhere.

EDIT: Maybe it's Sauber after looking at Duck's post above.
