The Williams FW34. Jislaaik, but that's an ugly one!

 

[g0nt4du]

I think the ugliest are caterham, williams, sauber, ferrari

Every car with the platypus nose looks ugly. I guess it's just something that we have to get used to. But still

 

[killadoob]

U guys are still on about the looks.

Geez do you watch f1 for racing or because the cars look pretty? if you want pretty cars then f1 2012 ain't for you . Go watch nascar or indy

No idea what a pretty motorsport car should look like, i watch for the racing not for the beauty.

Like an SLS amg, like an Aston DBR, like a M3

Aesthetics do have a roll in racing IMO.

I'd prefer to watch pretty cars rather than ugly ones

Whats the roll though, are you going to stop watching f1 2012 because the cars are not pleasing on the eye or will be glued to your tv when 7 teams are going for the win?

 

[kayvee]

Most of the looks are due to the current regulations anyway, particularly on the front nose section changes for this year.

Or a ferrari 458

Of course we are still going to watch. It's just the little child inside me would never have a poster of those platypus cars on my bedroom wall. As I said, we'll get used to it. But still

Yes , excellent choice. LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR!!!!

Have you seen Bernie Ecclestone?

 

[AirWolf]

Have you seen Bernie Ecclestone?

So the regulations were changed to make new cars look like him?

Does anyone have any news regarding which UK commentary we are taking on the races this year, now that Brundle has moved to Sky and DC is staying at the BBC?

Martin Brundle believes he will be a better commentator for Sky in 2012 thanks to the experience he gained from leading the BBC's television commentary during Formula 1 races last season.

Jake Humphrey remains as presenter, alongside chief analyst Eddie Jordan and co-commentator David Coulthard, while Ben Edwards joins as commentator.

I'd hedge my bets on us getting the new Sky feed. Far as I remember the BBC's only broadcasting about half the races, and with continuity (and less expense) in mind I'm sure ol' Bernie would've organised Sky to handle the world feed's commentary.
