2014 car launches PICTURES

[mjo]

With all the pictures of the 2014 cars being lost in a sea of comments about their ugliness, whether the car is a man or a lady and, with the launch of the Ferrari today, various vacuum-related puns, I thought that it would be good to have a dedicated thread with just the pics, so if anyone who wants to quickly browse the anteater class of 2014 can.

Force India:

(sorry, wrong picture)

Lotus:

Williams:

(Not the final car)

Mclaren:

Ferrari:

Sauber:

Toro Rosso:

I'll update this thread as more cars get launched.

Is that Williams being driven by Virtual Barrichello?

 

[Bill Boddy]

So far everything looks a bit virtual. I wonder if any of them have really been built yet.

 

[Fenderman]

Those really must be comedy iterations to engender ridicule, fear and loathing on the part of the viewing public in a vain attempt to force the FIA to rescind the regulation. Methinks the first part of the plan is working ... on me anyway

 

[Jen]

I don't care what they look like as long as they do the job!

I know that is a naive point of view and should, perhaps, get into aero design but life is too short.

 

[Titch]

They're all being printed out on 3D printers.

Mercedes:

Red Bull:

Force India monstrosity:

Love that there is a sodding great white arrow directing you toward the stupid nose on the Force India.

Caterham:

 

[Road of Bones]

Oh Lordy - where's the "Unlike" button?

It seems that there is definitely a sense of aestheticism missing at Caterham, and has been for a couple of seasons.

The Merc looks pretty good though - the camera mounts seem to soften the "melted nose" look that the Ferrari utterly fails to accomplish.

Red Bull? Meh. Force India & Torro Rosso, equally Meh.

I can't help but wish they'd gone down the BrawnGP '09 route for the "low nose" design - that was a beautiful car!
