Speed

Since the FIA is always trying to reduce the speed of the cars do you think they might sometime ban raised noses?

I doubt it would make that much difference in lap times.

However I would like to see them banned on aesthetic grounds!

Quite.

Forget the messing around with the points system and eighth place getting a pity point. What about the best looking car getting an extra point? I've seen stranger things in F1. However with the current lot, it may be possible to chose the best looking, but are any actually good looking (the difference between relative and absolute).

BTW:

When the Benetton B192 first ran with the high nose, and being the only car to do so, i really liked it, now that everyone does it, i prefer the lower nose cone.

Wasn't Tyrell somewhere in late 80's to do that? (I forgot when exactly, but I'm pretty sure it was Tyrell)

I think it's rather in the very early 90's that Tyrrell ran with a high(ish) nose.

This is the Tyrrel 019 that ran in the 1990 season and the first one with a high nose IIRC.

Yes, that's right, late 80s or early 90s, couldn't remember. That's the one!
