What's with the winglets over the front wing? Aren't they banned?

Doesn't look as good as 2008.
But not bad at all by any means, other
than rear wing which I still find a little odd. Probbably will get used to it down the road.

I still really dislike the fat front wings and tiny rear wings that everyone's forced to use so it stops the car from being truly beautiful in my mind but it still looks nice (for what it is allowed to do). I really like the nose actually - just not the width of the front wing of course. The other thing about those mirrors though - call this wishful thinking but when you consider where they are and how much barer and thiner the back of the car is, aerodynamics wise, the drivers might actually be able to see something out of them!!!

Nice, I don't like the mirrors, well and obviously the proportations, but actually the carbody has a very nice shape. The livery is no surprise, just ferrari used always, though glad they got rid of the white since 2006.

Btw, the front view is edited, the reflections on the ground are very bad photoshops …

Looks quite nice, very nice infact, but I guess nothing too unexpected. Alot better than I thought originally.

Airbox is quite interesting.

Thing is, Ferrari is always the same and people like it... Toyota is also always the same and people complains... ;)

Imho in 2007 Ferrari got back a certain grace in their design with the metallic red.
Although Toyota improved their design since 2002, it's still just a bucket of red paint splashed on a white car. Not supposed to be anything else.

Moi aussi. It looks gorgeous. The aerial shot makes me happy they banned flipups and all such like. :)

Though, in the studio photos whole car is faked, proportions were changed, dimensions from particulars altered etc.. Same thing that happened to the f2008 launch ones.

It still looks messy, maybe the angle of lightning, or maybe the mirrorthings.

Shapewise it looks better than the presentationpictures.

It dont look to bad, the front wing still will take some getting used to.

I also though winglets were banned, i.e the extra flap on the front wing.
