SteveGee Member Registered: 07/27/10 Posts: 1054 Loc: Planet Earth	Damn, that is ugly... Gascoyne must have had a bad hangover when he drew up that thing. Got a feeling we're gonna see more ugly cars this year, according to reports.

RSColonel_131st Lifer Registered: 01/02/01 Posts: 20532 Loc: Vienna, 2nd rock left.	Shame really - I know it's superficial but these cars need to look like the fastest cars in today's road racing, otherwise it won't interest me half so much. If they all turn out to be ugly this year it definitly will dimish the "feel" of the sport.

SteveGee Member Registered: 07/27/10 Posts: 1054 Loc: Planet Earth	The changes in the rules this year's going to give us some shining examples for a "Ugliest Cars in F1 History" thread later on, I imagine. Some preliminary sketches I've seen of this year's Fez have made me cringe. It's hard to cheer for an ugly car. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it." Mark Twain
