Lotus F1

Today the Lotus F1 car is unveilled…

Wishing all the very very best of course , but … is it just me or does the car look very “draggy” ?
Lotus F1 Pics…
:confused:

Just look at that front wing …
And the rear wing ? Prototype for a new kind of wheelie bin ?
Is it built just for Monaco ???

Sorry in advance if i’m upsetting anyone but to my eyes …it’s ugly…
Maybe it’ll work out fast , then i’ll eat my opinion…i hope it does … Somehow though i,m reminded of a saying … “if it looks right … it is right”

Can’t say that about this car …
:frowning:

Hmmmm
Ps … Pete 757 … would you test fly that ?..

Did Jonnyfox have a hand in the design? :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Hey leave off :smiley:

I was at the launch party on Friday and the car looks much better in the flesh. They all have to run the heavy front wing now and, with no refuelling stops in 2010 they’ll all need a much ‘wider’ aero/weight performance envelope.

I think it is brilliant that the car is Green and Yellow and that it has the next available type number (127) as this firmly ties it into the Lotus DNA.

All we need now is some results but we probably shouldn’t expect too much too soon.

There is a huge Lotus fan base out there can can see only beauty and success. I may be one of them… Come on No 18 and No 19!

Well going on today’s testing it’s no Virgin, Mikey G must be chuffed.

Some great pictures on Autosport.com. It looks just “right”. Sad person that I am, I have set one a desktop background.

I’ve also got the launch pictures as my desktop.

Although one good new feature of windows 7 is that i have about 5 pictures that cycle around every few minutes.
