The nose on the Renault is just plain weird. Looks like a shark. I'm really loving the Mclaren. That car is by far the best looking so far. The Williams is surprisingly good too.

I'm liking the new look of the cars in general. Way more organic and love the swoopy lines unencumbered by all those annoying winglets.

 

it's been interesting looking at the new cars. i think it's easier tell all the little differences between them.

 

Its funny to me that Renault are the only ones that kept the shark fin after last season when all the rest of of them seem to have ditched them. I'm interested to see how the cars vary between now and Australia!!! Hope Renault is able to close the gap, not lose ground.

 

by far the ugliest car so far. looks like those cheap f1 toy cars made for 5 year olds

and the paint scheme makes it look like a clown car. i miss the 2006 paint scheme

 

toy makers knew what f1 cars would look like

 

lol nice one birel. yaa the blue and yellow scheme was really nice.

 

by far the mclaren is the best looking so far.. and if you dont look at them straight from the front they look great..

on a side note.. first lap first corner is going to be a disaster with cf parts going everywhere and tons of punctures. It will put a huge emphasis on qualifying near the front!

New Ferrari F60 'illegal' - report

Ferrari's newly launched 2009 single seater, the F60, has been declared "illegal" by a specialist German motoring publication.

Auto Motor und Sport said the car, revealed last week at the Mugello circuit in Italy, features rear exhaust outlets that contravene the sweeping new technical regulations.

The magazine said some of the Italian team's rivals have noted that because of the new rules cracking down on bodywork appendages like aerodynamic winglets, exposing the exhausts in the way the F60 is designed is not allowed.

A glance at the other new cars revealed so far - the Renault, Williams, McLaren and Toyota - shows that their exhausts have all been mounted in-board.

Auto Motor und Sport said it should not be too much of a problem for Ferrari to redesign the exhaust housing, but it may help to explain the team's retreat from the Portimao group test this week to Mugello.

Officially, Ferrari decamped to Mugello because of adverse weather forecasts for this week, but the magazine said the F60 also showed a significant problem with its front wing when tested last week.

It is suggested that, in light of these challenges, Ferrari concluded that it should be conducting the car's first major test as close as possible to its Maranello base.

 

And if it leap frogs to the front of the field, I don't care what it looks like, as long as it is yellow and red

 

The rear wing does seem tiny but I don't mind it so much. But the font wings are huge! It almost looks disproportionate to the rest of the car. I foresee a lot of racing incidents due to the wider front.
