haha,i was very impressed what loeb did,and oh poor senna,if ayrton(if he is still alive until now),my guess is he could top the time sheets on top 3 with that honda car instead of his weak nephew that clearly show,that he is not a formule 1 material guy

oh no,that williams nose looks likes "a duck's mouth" honestly..,if you could compare the mouth of a duck and the nose of that williams

dont be to hard on senna yet, it was his first test, and with everyone testing something else its hard to see who really are fast and who arent.

Pedro is going to be testing for Force India the next 2 days.

@ice-man kimi,yeah i know,but i prefer loeb than him,yes i know loeb runs a small f1 test on renault but it was only 1-3laps, so what,you can still see how down senna right now,even ppl in gpg can beat him! haha

hahah i laugh at people who some weeks/months ago said that current cars are fugly and that in 2009 cars will look more like in the 90s --hahaha you are in for a surprise it seems. Lol that BMW heap!

The Williams does though, gin.

You know you want to. [judgegrudge.mybrute.com]

yes, the 2008 cars are looking better and better by the minute


seriously though, this better improve the racing, or they should just accept the sport as it is and give us some nicer looking cars



btw, PDLR testing today for Force India - taking some data on the ferrari engine i'm sure

Well Mclaren will already know what the engines like anyway as its meant to be the same as 2007 anyway

I dont think Force India use the same spec as Ferrari anyway their is the one from 2007, if I remember right STR got theirs upgraded to the same as the main Ferrari team.

even the drivers don't like the cars

Christian Klien: "To me, for the moment, it's the worst (looking) Formula One car I have ever seen. It just doesn't fit together."

I think if one team set a low nose like in early 90s could be a nice car...

That Williams is stunning. I think the dark colour makes the front wing seem smaller, thus why the BMW looks like the lovechild of the walrus Williams from 04.

Sato topped the charts again .4s clear of Vettel !
Senna-Sato would be a nice combo :P

Actually Vettel topped Sato by two tenths :P

I dont care what they look like if it provides exciting racing.




LS's Tip of the week
ESSENTIAL OILS aren't essential unless you're an engine, a gearbox or a twat

I'm not sure these cars are the full 2009 designs, i think they will be sleeker and make the overall package look better. I may be wrong though.

The picture of the Williams on the previous page is gorgeous though.

That Honda actually looks quite nice, going by the photo above. Shame the pace isn't there to match it.

The BMW looks truly horrendous though - more like a Formula BMW than an F1!

Looks nice from the side
