Sure isn't anything graceful about that. All those swoops and nothing cohesive so I guess it matches up well with the rest of their product line.
Doesn't matter. All the dentists will be happy.

Both braking systems should be offered, from my friends at Pinarello "to satisfy those looking for performance or something easier".
I find bizarre they went for the kinked top tube after it took way-too-long for Look to realize people couldn't stand it... Now if it is more aero than the F10 that was measured at 213W which is at the level of a Madone (and versus 203W for the current absolute fastest bike - SystemSix) that would be an extremely interesting offer from a performance point of view. Hope they stiffen the frame that was quite flexier than the previous generation (75-85N/deg for the HT when the references are in the 100-110 range) and made the frame les "snappier" at the moment to accelerate.

Don't think so. Do another frame by frame - you can clearly see the kinked seatstays of the disc F12 pictured, and you can also clearly see the sharp edged triangular fill in of the inside of the TT/ST junction, where the current F10 has a flowing semi-circular fill in, the bottle cage cutout is much deeper than the F10, just like the F12 picture...
It's definitely the rim brake variant of the bike pictured here.

Unless they announce an English or T47 BB then it's just another piece of under-engineered garbage
