2009 McLaren
 

That rear wing looks stupid

yer whats happend to the massive ones like last year

it looks like it has been photo-shopped, or Jimmy took the pic with his Fish-Eye lense haha

That will be the new rules for 2009. All of them will look similar to this.

all it is missing, is the mechanic getting an electric shock from the KERS

I must say, hats off to all the designers for making the cars look a lot more pleasing than I thought they would.:thumbsup:

I did think they were all going to look toss to be honest.

The rear wing does look stupid though, but theres nothing they can do about it as that is the rules.

I don't know why they didnt leave the wing the same width, and just limit the amount of horizontal planes to 1 and have a limit on its depth. This way the cars would look better, but still reduce the rear downforce, which is what this is all about.

the McLaren has got toe-out on the front... :woot:

I wonder what Cree has come up with for the RedBull....

I think the principle is to leave as little 'bad air' behind the car, so a narrower wing will do that.

ok,so i may get jumped on again(lee):p.
but what was the best f1 car? Attachment 4997 FW14b...hmmm:wub

Bet they will be a right handful in the wet with such small wings compared to the previous cars.

I bet they will, especially with the large front wing as well.
Heidfeld has predicted lots of big accidents this year.



This has to be the best F1 ever. Winning all but one round in 1988 taking Senna to his first title.

If it hadn't been for the Ferrari's scoring a 1-2 in monza, not long after after Enzo Ferrari died, then they would have won every race.

If it hadn't been for Jean-Louis Schlesser, then Senna would probably have won that race too.

I'm hoping that the racing makes up for the way the cars look this year. As has already been said, wet races will be interesting.

Exactly. And he was only there standing in for Nigel Mansell because he was ill or something.

It's hard to get past the fact that we're talking about a season from 20 years ago, we must be getting old!
The cars were better back then and the racing....
