Preview of the 2009 Grid
I bet they don't let them get away with the wheel covers that cover part of the tires. From there is a short step to closed wheel. A slippery slope for sure.
I also think the Brawn looks the best. The nose on that Renault looks terrible!

The FW31 is also the only car on the grid to run a mechanical KERS unit. I really am looking forward to see how well they hold up against the rest over the season.

Is it me or do this cars look Fuglier every year. 

The first thing for me is please, never make me see a straight on shot so I can see just how stupid narrow the rear wing is, that's just stupid silly looking. When I see the cars at an angle it is not too bad, but the straight on shots just kill me, so yes, in this case, way uglier.
The second thing for me is the side view of the car, holy cow, you can actually see the car nowadays, and I like it! With the elimination of the crazy bunch of weird barge boards the basic shape of the side pods and rear quarter panel area can now be seen, and I really like seeing the car's cool shapes.
The third thing, I will never get tired of seeing real tires on F1 cars. Hail be to the death of the grooved tires!!!
Good video of all the cars today in practice at Barcelona. Enjoy!!
