That was in October. Merc were already pretty much guaranteed the WCC & WDC. Pretty sure Merc dedicated more resources to the W08 as early as mid-season while Ferrari were still trying to get to grips with 2016.
Arrivabene also denied claims that Ferrari has actually already given up on 2016, having now turned its full focus to the new rules and car for next year.
“No,” the Italian said, “Ferrari does not give up and under my management it never will. We are already looking ahead to next year’s car and will not find ourselves unprepared for the new rules.”
“But right now I’m interested in this season. We have to solve every problem, and as quickly as possible,” insisted Arrivabene.

I don't have any proof of this or have read any article but those are my thoughts exactly when it comes to the time working on the W08; they were way ahead of everyone else just like the engine dept when introduced in 2013 then made it on the track in 2014. They are probably working on OR have been working on the W09 for 2018.

Still no images/video of the diffuser/rear?
guess not....i'm sure we'll find pictures online once testing starts on Monday onwards.....let's hope Ferrari have something up theirs sleeve with the diffususor as well....somethig's up for sure, just by looking at the amount of RAKE the car has currently when they ran it on filming day at Fiorano
that kind of rake was comparable with red bull last year or pretty darn close to it
I'v read the last 10 pages about the launch and I have only one thing to say. The car looks like a cow sucked dried by vampires bats, the south-east asians ones (the agressive ones). What you see is what is left on the field. On a positive note, all cars look the same. The MB-cow looks like its be decapitated as well. Our cow looks like it's been sick prior to the attack.
Please, please FiA, end Formula 1. Stop this madness!
Troll? Do you see when I registered here on this forum? Look to the right, OK?
I will tell you when Ferrari are competitive again. This isn't the year. Believe me, I've been around. What kind of an idiot do you take Toto Wolff for? At the end of a Formula you think Merc will just let it go over one winter? You're delusional. Before 2020 pray to the lord that Bottas will shave off Hamilton at least two titles because otherwise he has at least 5-6 in him and God only knows how long he will go on. What did I write that made you so upset? The truth?
Obviously you're all having a party here jerking off to the new car, the SF70H. Fine. Don't let me spoil your fun. But you're so stupid. So stupid. So let's make a deal, everyone who has written at least three positive posts (and I will check it in 2018) about the SF70H, you will all go away from this forum for all time (moderators as well) if the Scuderia wins two races in 2017 (they might fluke one and one doesn't count). I will offer this. I shut my mouth for the entire 2016 season season. I will shut my mouth for the entire 2017 season if you take the challenge. And also if I lose, I will never write another post here. So, if the Scuderia doesn't win two races or more you're out of here forever, all of you. If they do, I will never write here again and that includes this entire season until november. OK? Who's up for it? I'll shut my mouth from now on and believe me I will check this thread in the future.

Redbull unsuccessfully tried to find support among other teams to ban the large engine covers (sails) at yesterdays strategy meeting.

The only thing I took issue with was you asking the FIA to end Formula 1. I don't want it to end.
I'm excited by our car this year, and I'm allowed to be. I'm not saying it's going to win - I don't know that. If it doesn't, though, I'll be here the whole time, just as I've been since I watched my first race. Ferrari doesn't owe me anything. I'm a fan. I support them no matter what. I hope it wins! But it it doesn't, I'll support them until they're winning again.
Guys, can we cut out the personal attacks.
Thanks
Rest in Peace Leza, you were a true warrior...
FIA have change the rules for aesthetics reason before, such as to remove the step nose, or the more recent finger nose.
I won't be surprise if they remove the shark fin in future seasons.
But I'm curious why RB wants it gone though. I doubt they are that concern about car's aesthetics.

looks like the wo8 took some design elements from our car
So here is more on the Redbull issue from posts #1035 and #1036:

Oh man, I hope Scarbs is wrong about it. Otherwise it's gonna be ugly.
Disappointing; 2009 to 2016...
