Good eye. I missed it the first time. I guess I was too busy checking out all the changes. Not exactly the big dead-center of the nose logo from the previous thread, huh?
You may have to turn in your Man card!!

I think it hideous, and i can't think that the BMW F1.09 will only look the same as this monstrosity.
I already miss the drama with all the wings and aerodynamic enhancements. Look at that rear wing, it's like it is handicapped.

These new regulations really make the cars look ugly. Man that rear wing is small.
We will see if the new changes allow the cars to run closer without losing downforce, I doubt it.

After the V10 engines were reduced to V8 in 2006 cars ran unquestionably slower than with two extra cylinders, and it wasn't untill the end of 2008 season that eventually the V8 powered cars started to catch up and even equal V10 cars. I suspect the same thing will happen now in 2009. FIA really give headaches and start pissing teams off with many stupid regulations ever so that in the end, after 2-3 years of research lap times are the same.
I always thought F1 cars should improve lap times year by year.
