What's wrong with the Sauber livery exactly? I think it's the best looking Sauber since 2008. It's nice.

Well Sauber, thats not really great is it... I had hope when i saw the livery had more black on it, but it hasnt turned out that great. Same problem with the nose etc, although theirs seems to have a sort of rim that runs round the edge of it?

Looking forward to see what Red bull put forward now.

Am I the only one thinking these new diving board noses could be quite lethal in a crash? They're basically a giant blade.

I'd dread to think the damage one of these would do to a passing car if it got caught in a spin. These things look like they'd fillet the radiators in a flash.

LOL @ this...

Yeah just like Toleman yesterday, the site is struggling with the demands on the bandwidth.

Not the most elegant solution to the platypus swordfish nose we've seen so far yet not quite as visually offensive than the Ferrari.

Toro Rosso next.

That nose makes it look Ferrari had a 'take your son to work day' and somebody thought it'd be clever to let their 3 year old draw the nose =/.

No surprises. A pure, clean development. Look good. They somehow make the nose look better than most.

For the Sauber, I like it. I like the livery, I like the nose. Looks a decent car. Get to see them running tomorrow so I guess we'll get better pictures of them all tomorrow, and actual exhaust positions! But so far, the Ferrari's front end just looks like a complete joke.

Unfair judgement though to be honest, poor angle on an unconnected nonecone :P
