In this photo, due to the very high nose, the lower wishbones for the front suspension appear to be connected to the underside of the tub. I cannot recall having seen this arrangement before. Can anyone post an image showing how these suspension members are attached?

Didn't Ferrari run a front wing painted silver or white in the 70s? It looks kinda retro to me.

Desmo.

Check out Tifosi-Club.com views of 1999 & 2000 cars. Lower wishbone is mounted under the nose of the car in 1999.

Hi, this configuration (lower wishbone attached to bottom of Tub) has been used since 1997 - i.e. the F310B, F300, F399 and the F1-2000 has the same lower-front suspension. For photos check the

Looks like the white gives Marlboro better ID.

I have a poster on the wall behind me right now of Gilles in #27 complete with silver front and rear wings.
