    Interesting how they're covering up the rear diffuser in the last photo!

    I commend Renault for implementing the new/old livery to distance themselves from the fiasco that was 2009, but am I the only one who will think of Jordan GP, and NOT Renault, watching a bright yellow-and-black car making its way around the track? Perhaps not so good for branding.

    On another note, the car doesn't look as fast as the Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes entries we've seen thus far. And yes, that's an entirely unscientific, unsubstantiated claim. ;)

    Mclaren did the same with their rear diffuser at their launch.

    That is the best looking of the 2010 cars released so far.
