This is possibly going to be the most unexciting set of liveries ever. Williams and Marussia had better sort themselves out, or we are doomed.

And, as for rating the new cars in order of appearance, it'll end up being a biased fiasco, and another cause for a fight (one which almost started)

Lew has spoken.

Bloody, hell, that's got to be the sulkiest post ever. Sorry folks. :rofl:

So now that we know the livery and the basic shapes of this years rides, we have all the information we need to pick the 2013 WDC and WCC. :hehe:

I need to see more of the Marussia to make a verdict. I'm affectionate towards the Caterham simply because of the green livery... it's different to everyone else you see?

Appearance-wise, it's not the most beautiful of shapes...

EwanM has a point in saying it looks rather like an Indycar :hehe:

Its a real shame - I dont think these new F1 cars look half as sexy or aggressive as they used to look, say 5-10 years ago.

just forwarding on a couple of things Andrew Benson (or rather, Gary Anderson) has been saying on twitter:

Gary Anderson says the two cars that stand out for him at moment are the McLaren and the Ferrari - lots of bits that look like a step fwd. Gary's struggling to tell difference between old and new Red Bulls, apart from nose. Hears unconfirmed rumours of big update for last test.

The Marussia looks very sleek. Looks like an Indy Car but that ain't a bad thing. Looks rather basic.

Yeah...I think the Caterham has taken Ugliest Car trophy from Ferrari of last year.
