The first render images of the Mercedes W12 car were released on Tuesday morning ahead of an online presentation at 11am GMT featuring drivers Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas. Mercedes has retained the black-based livery for 2021 following its switch before the start of last season in a strong anti-racism message. But the team has ditched its speckled-star design on the engine cover, replacing it with a series of stickers for its AMG brand against a background that fades to silver. Although there is a majority carry-over from the W11 following the freeze on development, all teams have been permitted to spend two development tokens on major updates for the 2021 cars.

The German car manufacturer will unveil its new W12 during a special online presentation from 11am UK time (12pm CET), prior to drivers Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas speaking about their ambitions for the year. The new Mercedes W12 is an evolution of last year's title-winning W11, but has been adapted around new aero regulations that have been brought in to try to reduce downforce. The 2021 campaign will also be Mercedes' first under a new ownership structure, with the team's shareholding now equally split between Daimler, team principal Toto Wolff and chemicals company INEOS.

2021 Hyundai Bayon Revealed With Quirky Styling And Spacious Interior
The i20 supermini gets a crossover makeover with eccentric styling. While we're patiently waiting for Hyundai to dip its toes into the pickup truck and performance segments with the Santa Cruz and that mid-engined sports car , the Asian brand is rolling out yet another crossover. Contrary to reports, the new Bayon is not actually significantly smaller than the Kona as the two have similar footprints. At 4.18 meters (164.5 inches) long, 1.77 meters (69.7 inches) wide, and 1.49 meters (58.6 inches) tall, the subcompact crossover is only a bit shorter than the facelifted Kona (4.21 meters / 165.9 inches) while being a little bit narrower and with a lower roofline. The wheelbase measures 2.58 meters (101.5 inches), a tad shorter than the Kona's, while the cargo capacity stands at 411 liters (14.5 cubic feet) or 1,205 liters (42.5 cubic feet) once you fold the rear seats. The load volume trumps the Kona with or without the bench down. Length Width Height … [Read more...] about 2021 Hyundai Bayon Revealed With Quirky Styling And Spacious Interior
