First 2012 F1 Cars Launched

In the past week 3 teams have launched their F1 cars for the 2012 season and it looks like we are in for a year of really ugly cars apart from 1 team.

First launch was by the new Caterham Team and it revealed a horrible 'Platypus' nose that we have been informed is due to the new regulations

Although I love the livery it would seem that the cars are getting wings that are more and more mismatched.

Next up were McLaren and their take on the new nose is much nicer with a sweeping upper surface that does not feature the pronounced step above the suspension mounts. Actually quite a good looking machine as long as you ignore the wing mismatch. 


And finally the Ferrari, sorry about the picture it was a screen grab from the launch video.

We were hoping that the Caterham was a one off but it would seem that Ferrari have gone the same way. It looks like somebody sat on the nose molding before it was set. 'Whoops, oh well, nobody will notice!'.

Ugly, just plain ugly!
