Mercedes announced the new car for the 2021 Formula 1 season on Tuesday. Many reactions appeared online, and people seem to be very pleased with the latest W12 from Mercedes.

The new W12

Mercedes presented the new W12 on Tuesday with which Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton will attack the season. The black livery is back, but there is also a lot more blue from sponsor Petronas in the new livery. Opinions online are largely positive.

It was already said that the livery of Mercedes would remain predominantly black, and last year's black livery was also seen as a beautiful car. However, the blue hues make it even more difficult for fans this year to really hate the dominant car. Read the best reactions to the new W12 below and don't forget to let us know what you think of the new Mercedes in the comments!

Woah.. Wat een bak! Heel erg gaaf.. Wel duidelijk dat Ineos hun zichtbaarheid (en aandeel) willen vergroten bij Daimler/Mercedes. Ik vind de @MercedesAMGF1 W12 zeker een beauty. Als ie zo snel is als dat hij eruit ziet dan gaat het weer een saai jaar worden ben ik bang 🤪
