By far the best nose job yet! Shame Boiler cant take it to McLaren along with RoGro for Button

Really? It looks like a damned tuning fork.

Pasta's weapon is a fork.

Christ, whats next, Suttils Saubers nose shaped like a wine glass?

[1Lemon]

It's almost becoming like Mario Kart F1

EDIT: Let's hope the Lotus doesn't have a head on collision with any of the ant-eater cars.

One of these prongs is actually shorter than the other so may just be a vanity panel.

I just had this image in my mind of a Lotus spinning around on the first lap...and a Williams bangs it's nose head on into it...


HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What are the advantages of the prongs being different lengths?

I think it's just the rendered focal lenght perspective of the wideish angle.

There are some plan views of them doing the rounds

I think the rules say you have to have an actual nose member projected out and a means of support for the wing. So lotus have one of each but side by side

Instead of the member and struts supporting the wing,they have 2 members or struts. And so 1 is shorter so they can call it the strut with the longer called the nose member

Can't see too much airflow advantage though

One is shorter than the other, must be a crash structure, the other a vanity panel.

I blame the French or influencing this It is great for getting snails out of it shell.

You know, I was wondering if Boulier would take Grosjean with him....or get him there over the next year. He manages him doesn't he.
