it is the F1.08 with modified aero its not their 09 chassis yet either!

I don't think that actually looks too bad there... hmm. These new cars look ok from some angles and horrible from others

It looks kinda reminiscent of the '04 Williams in one of the pics - the 'walrus' nosed one!

They are very ugly but as long as they make exciting racing then I'm all for it.

@Scotty
My exact thoughts



Gawd the BMW does look a mess. The williams car that was shown not so long ago looked quite good, but I can't say the same for Honda or BMW. Both of whom look ridiculous. This could take some time to get used to.

I have seen some tickets up for sale to go to the 2009 race at silverstone...should be a good one, get behind hamilton on his home ground and send him on his way to anothere championship title! have a look on buyoncegivetwice.co.uk, There is loads of other racing stuff aswell so i thought id share it with you!

That BMW wing looks so retro... It also looks solid like a piece of metal instead of carbon fiber. Maybe there plan is to shovel people of the road.

[McLaren Fan]

The cars don't look too bad from the side, but looking at them from the front or back isn't quite as pleasant.

I like practically everything about that interim BMW. If the ends of the front wing weren't so square and 'blocky' and it didn't appear to have a piece missing in the centre, it'd be awesome. However, once again, the Williams is the best looking of the interim cars. Maybe if they put that new front wing on the BMW, it wouldn't look so bad.

I wouldn't take anything whatsoever from those times. The fact that some times were set on grooves and others on slicks, some on 2009-spec aero packages and some on 2008, means that Di Grassi could have been the fastest man out there and Taku the slowest

Exaggeration, but you get it.

Yeh but i'm looking at Senna being faster than Grassi if Rubens is gone then i'd love to see Senna there.

and i expect there going to be comparing them directly.



check out the Ferrari's side pods.

[racechick]

The 2009 season cannot start soon enough, I want it begin now. I want to see Ferrari win. Although I am happy that Ferrari will enter the 2009 as constructors champions, I want to see Lewis Hamilton lose. I am goingh to hate his car with the number 1 on it. If Ferrari don't win it I want to see someone else other than McLaren's Lewis Hamilton win. Even seeing Heikki Kovalanein winning is a slightly better scenario. Camon 2009 season. Hurry up and come.........................

same old story.......you hate McLaren more than you like Ferrari how f***ing sad!!!

Ah but she said she would like to see Hekki win more than Lewis.

So from this we can determine,

She hates Mclaren
She Hates Lewis
She Loves Ferrari

In that order of priority.

What i would like to know is why she don't want Lewis to win but is content to see Hekki win?

She knows which one is the real threat to Ferrari , thats why

[KyrosV]

hmmm wurz was 4 to 5 seconds faster than Senna & Di Grassi? were they using different cars? Im guessing wurz is doing development while the 2 brazillians are doing driver auditions.

Loeb looks quick.

dont think you can take much from this test with times as its a mess. unless with drivers in identical cars

[kerc]

Sebastian Loeb?!

By the way, I think the McLaren looks pretty nice.

Testing it. It's a present from Red Bull for winning his fifth title. Red Bull sponsor his team.
