I always thought this effort looked very badly resolved

I have to say I particularly liked that
Mr. Mansell wasn't that keen on it
Only because he couldn't fit in it properly!!

Its only saving grace was its Matra V12.


What were they thinking about? It's supposed to be an "art car"!!


In case you're wondering it's a 1971 Porsche Indy car!


Current Indy cars as designed by Dallara are quite hideous.

This was pretty stupid looking with its silly nose ears... In fact pretty much every 2008 F1 car was ugly.

The March 751 with some experimental aerodynamics, even if this had worked it should have been banned on aesthetic grounds yuck

This. it threw me so many times watching it, because its British racing green I thought it was an Aston Martin coming from the distance. nothing other than a british car should be that colour

The original R18 was a cracking looking thing - lovely and clean, with a smart and slightly understated livery.

Though I also liked the MP4-10 - striking though not obviously pretty.


The newer one, whilst obviously quicker - doesn't half look awkward

The Audi looks awesome! It's Darth Vader's company car...

The first couple of generations of Daytona Prototype were all pretty horrible, but the Picchio was definitely the worst.

Those little six-wheel hill karts that go up Shelsey Walsh get on my nerves. Can't explain but I get annoyed watching them! Sure they're a blast to drive.
