Alfa Romeo’s 2022 F1 car, the C42, has been revealed in full following F1's shakedown test in Barcelona.
As well as some of the largest sidepods we've seen on any of the new-breed F1 cars, the other obvious main difference to most cars is Alfa Romeo’s return to a split airbox air intake. With the roll bar reduced to a single vertical spike through two slightly set-back intakes. As it uses the same engine as Haas it’s perhaps not surprising that the two have similar sidepods, although only in terms of the broad shoulders for the C42 and VF-22.
