Tidying up the 2016 cars...

So i've had a little play about with some of this year's cars in an attempt to make them slightly more aethetically pleasing.

Here's a few of them (they're nowhere near perfect...)

*Ferrari without the horrid nose appendage
*Williams minus horrid nose appendage
*Red Bull widened, with bigger rear tyres, minus nose appendage, minus vanes, wider rear wing, and narrow front wing (pretty crudely done)

Tidying up the cars is easy, get rid of toast rack turning veins and strakes from the "horizontal" surfaces.
And front wings must have less blades than my razor

These photoshops are certainly an improvement on the new cars, but realistically, they're still far uglier than any other form of motorsport. I know its not about looks, but F1 has gotten properly hideous recently.

Here's the "new" Toro Rosso livery, but in black (in an attempt to make it not look identical to the RB)

A distinct lack of Yellow, where as the RB has more than previous years

I just don't think that's going to show during broadcasts... Would love something slightly more distinctive!

Anyway, cheap plug, but i'm doing many more of these F1 edits (old and new) over on Instagram, if anyone's interested: 'f1edits'

Yep, the pre-1998 cars were the best looking overall. After they went to 1800mm and grooved tyres, they all went massively downhill in the looks dept.

To each, their own but, for me, it all started to go downhill after the Lotus 16, as far as appearance is concerned.
For variety, the return of power in '66 started the slow change to a formula, formula.

But wings properly b@88ered it.

Boy are you right!

Pure racing cars!

For me I think this was the high point, Lotus 49.

Sorry, far too many wings, especially forward of the front wheels.

Convergent aero evolution and tecnical regulations have already made F1 like NASCAR.

Just formalise it and reduce aero costs by several hundred million per team per year, which can in turn be spent on engines, motors and batteries.

I agree with you that it would be nice to see more mechanical innovation, these days it's only really aero that's innovative

Currently the difference is in the PUs, but then you are still not really even allowed to fix them ...

Yes, I must agree. To see a car drifting through a corner teetering on opposite lock and the edge of adhesion all held together by the driver's skills is truly an awesome thing. Well you can forget that as it is not going to happen.

Although the Williams FW08B was very unconventional, it more looks like a proper racing car than the ones Formula One currently produces.
