Mercedes AMG F1 just provided a series of clues/close-ups of its 2017 W08 war horse which shall be unveiled tomorrow at Silverstone.

The only discerning detail one will notice in the images is the fact that Mercedes has apparently not followed the 'thumb-nose' trend set by Willaims, Sauber and Renault up to now, preferring a rounded end.

It will take another 24 hours of patience until we get the full picture, but check out the gallery of images here.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
