[Sato]

True, but now i've seen a few pictures of it at testing, i really don't mind it at all. I mean at first i thought it was 'ok' but i actually quite like it!

At first i didnt like it but now i think it looks like a mean car, a car that would scare the opposition Sh#tless.

But for the fact that its a Williams Cosworth and not a Renault/Ferrari/Mclaren

[monza gorilla]

As I mentioned earlier, I think it is very reminiscent of the early 70s Tyrell colour scheme. And big number roundels always look good on a racing car. It's a good scheme, but will probably change as sponsors arrive.

[Jenson_Rules]

computer says no!

Am i the onlky one who thinks it looks complete Sh#te! And as if its gonna scare the opposition with mark behind the wheel, actually, correction, it will scare them at the starts with mark behind the wheel! he has atendency to cause 1st corner accidents! useless aussie prick!

See, it is a Aus V GB thing for some of them......

And as for first corners... Spa 2000 Jenson Button after a SC period, Jarno Trulli loses his P3, thkns to JB going in and spinning him.

[monza gorilla]

This is all a bit tiresome. I thought we were discussing paint schemes, not baiting aussies.

I think that it is. I think the British people on this forum arnt thinking straight. They just see that he is an Australian so they try and find any excuss to hate him. I can think of alot of drivers in F1 who have achieved alot less but in superior equipment (Massa, Trulli, Ralf Schumacher, Giancarlo Fisichella) for example. What have these people done to make them better than Webber. The answer is nothing but the English people on this forum would much rather insult the Australian than any other driver (with the exception of Sato).

Well most then, not all British people try to knock anything Australian at every opportunity.

Nice color blue, but yeah, looks very plain. I will also hold off judgement until I see the final product. The lines look nice, but can't see the whole car from that one picture.

Well I'm American and I just don't rate Webber, nothing personal

Indeed.  Likewise.  Although I’m obviously a native of Britain.

You might not rate him but you dont bring him up at every possible opportunity. Some of the British people on this forum seem to believe that Webber is one of the worsed in the feild but really this season was Webber's first season where he didnt perform as we hoped.

Which is to bad as he has shown speed in qualifing but not on race day in general. The year coming will make or break him i'm afraid...............

You can’t be referring to me for I have consistently maintained that Webber is distinctly average.  To summarise:  Webber is a very good qualifier and a poor racer.  He is also fairly old and yet inexperienced.  He has had poor team-mates - bar Justin Wilson who wasn’t given a fair chance, and Nick Heidfeld who beat Webber - but he has beaten most of them convincingly.  He is to be commended for his level of physical fitness but reprimanded for his abusive comments regarding the vast majority of his team-mates and his outrageous and frequent boasts in the media.

I havent heard anything from either Williams or Webber about how they are going to perform next year. Webber has admitted that he had a poor season and he hopes to do better next season.

He’s not as bad as Jenson in terms of media boasting, or for that matter Gil, Nick, Honda or any other facet of that team…but he still does it rather too much and too forcefully.  He recently indirectly compared himself to M$ and talked about the possibility of having the Williams team structured around him (albeit the impracticality of it).  He shouldn't postulate the possibility of receiving treatment analogous to the seven times WDC.

He said that making a structure around him at williams would NOT be possible. At least Webber has learned from his mistakes about boasting in the media.

One must not forget the verbal thrashing of his team-mates at Jaguar...............right or wrong.........

Indeed but he should not talk of the possibility.  His talent doesn’t warrant such an honour.

As i said he has learned his lesson about talking to the media. I can think of alot of other drivers who still boast to the media every year.

Actually, i love aussies, i just dont like MW, i think he is distinctly average and shall never amount to anything special! He also disses her teamates, did you hear button slagging off sato this year at all, NO because he isnt petty like that, he just boasts to the media EVERY FRICKING DAY! Its a shame he dosnt just keep quiet every now and again, LOL!

But anyway, i just dont like webber, he has an attitude and seems a real prick! A bit like you actually, are you sure your not MW?  

[F1 FANatic]

well, to me webber isnt the worst, he isnt the best, hes one of the guys who takes up a spot on the grid, you never really hear anything about him during the race exept for when he crashes so everyone thinks hes a horrible driver

This has turned into a quite ridiculous argument!

Mark Webber is over-rated, who cares what country he's from, its besides the point.
