Hi Catherine

I'm happy for others to correct me if i'm wrong but they all look to be the 2018 Mercedes F1 WO9.

It's difficult to tell a late W08 (after the nose update and removal of the true shark fin) from a W09. I would say all six pictures are certainly one of the two.

Three of the pictures at least are certainly from the 2018 season. The pink-walled Hypersoft was introduced for 2018, and did not feature in the 2017 season.

So unless someone can say otherwise, I'd be inclined to agree with Jezza...

The halo wasn't around in 2017 either & the 2019 ones were painted silver. 2018 cars had black halos'.

Wow.

If anything has ever proved just how little I notice the halo anymore, that's it right there.

All of those pictures are the 2018 w09 Mercedes, I can tell from the helmet alone. The yellow/gold helmet is 2018 Abu Dhabi special gold to celebrate the title win.

OK thanks for confirming. I'll go with: "2018 Mercedes AMG F1 W09 / Lewis Hamilton".

I appreciate all the sleuth work in looking at these pictures!
