I love the design, the nose and the design-tip is a bit too pointy but the rest is fantastic and I love the floral art incorporated in the red and the black!

That Virgin is absolutely gorgeous, loving the clean design and how the striking livery compliments it. Awesome. :D

Wauw, it's indeed absolutely awesome, both shape and livery. I have my doubts if it will be fast, but for the rest, it's an addition to the grid I think :)

reminds me of the 2002/3 minardi I think it was, mixed with a bit of skyker/midland. quite nice, not too corporate!

I dunno, Sauber does not even look like a proper F1 car, more liek some F3 car. Shame, as I always liked how Saubers looked in the past.

Virgin car, not red at all! but nice :)

Look at it after some beers and you might think Arrows has come back. ;)

Like the Ferrari, it looks like it was using 09 front slicks as they were much wider. In the above pic its def the skinnier tyres.

I might be presuming things here, but I wonder if Virgin actually realised that their car would look orange under natural light? lol - their corporate colours are red and white! We could well see the livery updated somewhat before the first race.

That picture is more natural lighting, but it isn't a correct representation. Any camera which turns the Bridgestone red into Orange is terrible, or setup incorrectly. The car is red for Virgin, not orange.

It's clearly just a random camera phone of some kind, so it's hardly going to be colour accurate.

true, + i guess most of the colours are set up to appear correct on TV rather than to the naked eye.

e.g

i always found the red flashes on the West logo's on the mclarens to be almost fluorescent/slightly pink when you saw the car for real but they looked a much darker red on the tv.

That car looks really nice, let's hope it will be fast enough.

Thats the first car if this new era that I've actually considered to be good looking. Not just relatively good looking, but good looking in it's own right
