This is the new 2009 interim Sauber BMW testing at Barcelona recently. Not a pretty looking car. :-?

F1 cars have not been pretty for a long time!

Since the engine started going in the back IMHO! ;)

Agreed!

Skinnier rear wing but much higher and massive front wing. :o
Obviously something to do with the new regs for 2009. The only thing that looks better is PROPER slicks. :y

As far as I know, this is pretty much how they will all look.
