i think it looks ok, not sure why they have glued a wardrobe door onto the floor though. Notice there is no pic front or rear on though... Another secret defuser

At least Ferrari tried to disguise theirs. Toyota just thought it would be a good idea to stick on two plates of carbon fibre, blend them in with the rest of the car's livery and hope nobody notices :hehe:

Nice looking... specially the silver color.
BUT the pics dont show the ugliest views (rear and front) of all 09'ers. The F60 is also nice looking from the side and top view.
The problem with ALL of them is that disproportionate rear wing. C'mon, they should have made it wider while keeping the same surface (which would have made it sleeker and more proportional to the car's width).

Something like this :yes:

Instead of this :vomit:

I expect that having the wing wider while keeping the same surface area would of caused extra turbulent air which effects overtaking so thats why narrower is better.

Indeed the dirty air effect.

even with such a huge front wing, slick tires and no winglets? maybe the turbulence created with the wider rear wing makes an unoticeable difference.
Dont know, but I just really dislike the tiny rear wing.

The small rear wing is there to create less turbulence for the car following intern the wider front wing is to give more downforce while following a car!

I'd rather the small rear wing than the twin CDW wing they were contemplating

It seem's that what we have here are those who are worried more about fashion and look's rather than getting back to some true competative racing and passing in F1. What is funny is those who complain the most about the look's of a car and the wing being too narrow are the most outspoken about 'there is no passing anymore' :rolleyes::banghead: . How about atleast letting the '09 season pass so we can all gather a full season's perspective of if the rule change's have had a positive or negative effect on the racing?

Flame suit on, fire away! :D
