Mercedes have offered a New Year's Day treat to their fans by sharing an image on social media that appears to give a rough idea of what their 2022 car will look like. F1 will introduce revolutionary regulations in 2022, with the cars set to look radically different as the sport moves to a ground effect-based philosophy in a bid to improve the racing. While concept images from the teams were released during the summer of 2021, as F1 revealed a physical model conforming to the regulations, the finished cars are likely to look quite different. To that end, Mercedes released an image, captioned 'New year. New Me-rcedes' that seems to give an indication of what to expect when the W13 is launched in the coming weeks. While the image was quite dark, a brightened version can be viewed below that better illustrates the concept Mercedes have revealed.
