2015 F1 Car Launches
Its getting to that season again.
The launches announced so far are all web only. McLaren 29th January Ferrari 30th January Force India are to launch their new livery on 21st January. I wonder does that mean they will have new sponsors on board? http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/117325 |

I like how the project name for the 2015 Ferrari is '666'.

Glad to see those rules changing the God-awful noses has worked.... *slaps head*
Looks terrible. Too skinny, looks flimsy, horrid nose. I honestly prefer the Indy cars and the Formula E cars. Sort it out, F1. Selby |

Same old garbage repackaged.
In my books 9 years now since the last time they actually had even modestly good looking F1 designs. |

I thought the 2009 cars were pretty decent. Massive step in the right direction, then they all adaopted the horrible shark fins, then made them in to limos a season or two after.
Just widen the things! Fat tires. Better noses. Done! Selby |

I like the look of the current cars, far more than the early 2000 groved tyre car. they looked narrow and way too many winglets etc. The more simple modern approach is great. Granted the noses are ugly, but getting better. Each to their own.
I'm really looking forward to this years reveals. I little bit anti-climatic for Williams to be featured on a cover page before their reveal. Hopefully it isn't the final version. |

the new force india paintjob is offensive but i'm not sure why. perhaps it's the "you can't polish poop but you *can* roll it in glitter" factor.

Very nice! But still an awful nose. Surely they can write something along the lines of 'must follow a constant curve with no pertrusions'?!
Looks like we'll either have 'thumbs' or 'jigsaw pieces' alá Williams. And there I was make-doing with all 'hoover' Ferrari noses! Selby |

bit on the offensive side for me too. garish placement of the sponsor logos maybe. might look better in motion though.

Unusual to see Quaker State involved in F1. No Mercedes logo anywhere.

So in conclusion, putting 2 and 2 together equals 5 I think the nose looks a bit better, the rest of the car much the same and the livery perfectly fine, if not a bit better for removal of lime green. |

I think its the 4 names just splattered across the engine cover that doesn't look right. Kind of looks like the sponsors have just signed a blank, black canvas and they have slapped that on the side of the car.
