Am I the only one who thinks that it should be made clear that this pic is a photoshop job?

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/80174

The pic also appears on the autosport home page and autosport/f1 home page...

If I am the only one, then, ok... I just think it would be good practice, that's all. (I mean, this is a journalistic publication right?)

I think it's fairly obvious what it is, and it was released by the team/Mercedes rather than something Autosport created.

K. Is it that obvious though? I certainly had to give it a second look. Keep in mind we don't get to see the original-res versions like you staffers might see. All we see is the published version which is nothing more than a large thumbnail.

But anyway, just another data point.

I was a bit surprised to see it too. The fact it comes from Merc themselves is quite interesting. Got the livery spec down already?

Oh, it's photoshop? Damn, I thought they already had a car with a 2010 livery ready, I was quite impressed at how efficient they are!

....

So.. you're going to caption it then? wink.gif

But wasn't that a bit unusal? A team releasing a Photoshoped pic like that.

The only reason I knew it wasn't an Autosport photoshop is that Autosport would have done a better job.
