Damn I hope it's got some decent pace from the start of the season!



I'm stupidly excited about this season. I suspect it shows there's something lacking in my life!

Can't even watch half the bloody races thanks to the SKY/BBC deal! Reckon my mates with Sky will mind me turning up at 6am for races?


Cheers,
James

Should be a good indication as to if all the cars will be as fugly as the Caterham.

Is that it in their holding video?, I assumed that would be last years car , but that one sees quite different and has some sort of spoiler arrangment over the front suspension area? Maybe its just my eyes...

Not 100% but that's the 2008 car I believe.

Indeed, the released car seems very ordinary looking. I dont recall ever seeing those wings on a previous car.

Car looks beautiful, a work of art... But then again most mclarens do, I just hope it goes as good as it looks!

Nice looking motor. Probably all going on underneath but relatively smooth and precise from the outside. A nice contrast to the buck-toothed Caterham.

The rear wng looks really low.

If ever a thread needed a photo!
