As blown axles are now banned it looks like they might have developed a split wheel rim to feed air out through instead. Looks like a little gap just inside the rim edge.

I can't see what you mean with the spit rim Kev but agree it needs Gold rims. VIDEO

I know the black and gold thing has been done but that does look rather nice.

Ah I can see what you mean but I think that it's strange shadows or just artifacts from a poor quality image as the youtube vid shows standard rims installed.
Maybe you missed your calling as being a F1 Engineer as the idea sounds like a perfect workaround for the new rules!!!

I had to look them up.
Mobile Phone company which hasn't launched just yet?
I noticed there is also a clothing company trading under the name ROKIT but has a different logo.
The RedBull looks boring nowadays and that Williams, well less said the better.

I like the Williams!!!
For those that don't it doesn't matter, as once again I doubt we will see much of them on prime time TV.

I reckon that colour scheme would have looked better if they swapped the black parts for the Williams dark navy blue.
EDIT: The williams looks to have some seriously sculptured side pods. From the right front on shot you can pretty much see the back of the car from just under the side pod air intake.
RedBulll Cola car looks to sporting some big outwash bargeboards!

That's the design that Haas should have used, imagine that with gold instead of yellow!

I'm pretty sure that's a render.
