Schumikonen 2 Report post Posted January 26, 2012 I don't think all cars will look like this one although I read somewhere that Ferrari's was just looking like this one, let's just hope for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Argento Reloaded 1 Report post Posted January 28, 2012 Well, Ferrari did once give us this: A nose with a snow plow!! (In fairness the car wasn't actually bad in terms of performance). This Ferrari 312 T3 (1978) was a masterpice of a good looking car if you copare it with the 312 T4 (1979) one of the ugliest cars in racing history! http://www.f1technical.net/f1db/cars/418/ferrari-312t4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quiet One 15 Report post Posted January 28, 2012 Don´t forget the Arrows!!! http://www.f1technical.net/f1db/cars/389/arrows-fa1 Oh,well...if we are going down this path then I think Sir Frank and his FW08 deserves to be mentioned as well for accomplishing the impossible: making the Tyrrell six-wheeler look good. The car was banned before season start, probably just because of its looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
