The nose is rather unique, but appears to be a far more prominent version of the phallic-shaped design the McLaren MP4-29.
Other changes aside from the nose include a heavily redesigned 'coke bottle' rear-end, which has been shaped to force the airflow towards the rear exhaust and diffuser. Furthermore, the air-box appears to be a more rounded triangular shape, as opposed to the likes of Sauber's C33.
Cepsa appear to have continued their partnership with the Italian-squad. Sponsorship from Sapinda and Nova Chemicals is also present.
The car will be powered by the Renault Energy F1-2014 unit, after ending their seven year relationship with Ferrari.
Drivers for 2014, Daniil Kvyat and Jean-Eric Vergne will share the driving duties over the course of the test, which commences tomorrow morning at 9am.
