The cars for the upcoming Formula 1 season are finally being unveiled! As a massive fan of the sport this could not come sooner. The months December through to mid-March are so boring for me.
This season is seeing some radical changes to Formula 1 rules. We have said goodbye to the V8 engine which are replaced by V6's and a seemingly bizarre rule change to double points for the last race of the season, among other changes.
From the latest released pictures from Ferrari, Force India, Williams and McLaren, the most obvious change to the style of the cars are the noses that is now being dubbed the 'anteater' nose. This is thanks to new rules that require the nose to be lower to the ground for safety reasons.
One of the biggest questions that have resulted from the changes to the 2014 season is whether or not Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull will continue their dominance that they've had over the past few years.
Either way, there's guarantee that Ferrari and their 2014 drivers Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonnen will both be competing to become world champion again.
Team personnel has also been shifting and changing within the teams. Eric Boullier has left Lotus for McLaren, with co-chairman Gerard Lopez replacing him at Lotus.
The driver line-up for 2014 is almost complete as well, with a number of drivers switching teams and also seeing the return of Japanese driver Kamui Kobayashi to Caterham.
