2012 F1 Cars

God they are ugly looking things!!

This is what Gary Anderson had to say:

"Anderson, the former technical director of the Jordan, Stewart and Jaguar teams, said: "When I saw a 2012 F1 chassis for the first time a couple of months ago, I thought: 'Oh God, I hope they're not all going to look like that!' But it looks like they are. "

Regulation for 2012 says that the nose can't be higher then a fixed height (for safety reason, crash and bla bla bla)...teams leave the chassis as higer as possible to carry more air possible to the rear diffuser, and then just the nose go down to the regulation height!!! So, yes, all the cars will looks like that more or less!!! Stefano Domenicali also said that the new Ferrari will be a bit ugly!
