For me the mid 80s no airbox turbo cars will always look the best Fuck you Balestre and your turbo hating agenda |

Late 60's pre-wing era IMO. Not having wings really emphasises the bullet-with-wheels look, and I love the exposed engine and pipes. The resulting sideways and minor air action in the turns and over the crests just elevates it to insane. |

The skinny 1998 cars and particularly the ugly grooved tyres are a big detriment to the looks of the cars, annoyingly they'd just got a good thing going with the 1997 grid and then they ruined it |

A lot of the 1998 grid was just slimmed-down 1997 concepts, and things were a bit less varied in 2000. I think you could look at any 1999 car without colour and know what it is. |

I like that pic, half a second before disaster. You wouldn't expect a thing if you don't know the story Philthy82 wrote: Late 60's pre-wing era IMO.

The resulting sideways and minor air action in the turns and over the crests just elevates it to insane. Exactly! The minimum required to strap a person to an engine and 4 wheels and go race. |

Wow, this is a really revealing angle - what a find! Have a look at Schumacher's right-rear wheel too. It's mostly obscured by Damon's left-front, but the camber is way off. I am sure the suspension is broken. The whole 'turned in because he knew his car was broken' line suddenly woke up |

Do people really need more evidence that Schumacher was a dirty, cheating bastard? |
