Someone left the drawing room door unlocked one day and Piquet got in with a box of crayons.

It's not just you. The Renault is both absurdly unattractive (Even before we start talking about its paint job) and clunky and awkward to look at. It does not look the way you would expect a high performance F1 car to look, it just looks inefficient and ill thought-out. Sort of like the No-Nose Williams

Can we at least agree on pounds if not kilograms? There are MANY non-Brits on here who don't know how much a frigging stone weighs! I bet you yourself would be hard pressed to express an F1 car's minimum weight in stone because nobody does that, EVER! :banghead:

Am I correct in the minimum weight permissible being 605 kg including the driver, fluids and on-board cameras, or 1334lbs

So if we work on the assumption that there are 6.35kilos to a stone, that should work out at around 95 stones.

Or in the case of the who ate all the pies renault around 100 stones!!

And surely flav realises that horizontal stripes on something packing a few extra lbs isnt the way to go. Should at least avoid stripes or vertical stripes at best maybe go for some sutle pastel colours instead of the bright orange and yellow.

I'm a Brit and even I struggle with the pounds/stone thing, I prefer using kilos too.

As far as I'm aware, Brits only use Old money weights for people and most of us are trying to move that to Kilos too.
