Through a stunning live video F1 just announced the unveiling of their 2022 prototype spec. The car looks very aggressive, especially the wings. But are the drivers happy with the result?

Max Verstappen

As we have come to expect from Max Verstappen, he is not easily impressed by anything, and also at the unveiling of the new car, the Dutchman is more concerned with the technical aspect than how the car looks: "It looks very different from what we are used to. The most important thing is that the racing is better. We have to be able to follow the car in front of us better. If we can do that I'll be delighted," the Dutchman told F1.com.

Hamilton, Leclerc & Ricciardo

Max's biggest rival Lewis Hamilton also reacted to the unveiling and agreed with his rival: "If this model makes tracking cars better for you that's just top of mind for the fans."

Charles Leclerc stated that he has already tested out the new car in the simulator: "It looks nice, I hope it will make the racing better. At least for the driver, the car feels very different as well." Daniel Ricciardo was impressed with the car. "The rear end is cool. The car reminds me a bit of the one from 2008. The longer I look at it, the more normal it seems to be already."
