The rear wing looks big to me!

Interesting look of the sides of the sidepods there.

Ugh, still the same STR livery.

Anyway, interesting to see Caterham splitting duties in the form of 2 days to Heikki, 1 each to Jarno & Giedo.

it's called "tv gold" to highlight the sponsors in a better way.

Just like the old ones.

Sorry, I thought from yesterday's blurry picture the Sauber C31 would be cool. But whoever designed that livery needs to be taken out back and beaten.

The Toro Rosso looks quite nice if you ask me:

While the RedBull looks like crap:

STR looks nice in studio shots. RBR studio shots suck, look nice in reality

Meanwhile, more pics from today

Don't know if I missed something but the nosecone of the Lotus looks way different to the one of the launch version. And I don't really like the new one...

I don't care how much it pisses you all off, I don't think it's that bad.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

I'm not going to be surprised to see McLaren turn up tomorrow with a bulkhead nose after 7 of the teams so far have them...

Oh dear Sauber that is so horrible. The Lotus I actually quite like. Sure it isn't a stunning car but it does appeal to me, my favourite so far (Mclaren loses out because of the livery, doesn't work for me). Of course the looks and livery don't matter. Ultimately they can all be as ugly as sin if they bring good racing.

Redbull had such a lame launch and video i hope they dont win a race this year.
Mclaren is the best looking car so far in my opinion

McLaren, Force India and Lotus are the best looking cars so far. I liked Sauber's paint scheme, the step nose that unfortunately f*cks it.

If the racing is (at least half) decent then I don't care what the cars look like or what colour they are.

And if Vettel wins again?

I am at least partly here because as a child the cool looking cars caught my attention.
Yes, the good racing made me stick around, but as the French say, the first bite is with the eye and all that.

I just hope we can start a petition or something to encourage the FIA to change a minor reg or two for the future to eliminate this trend before F1 becomes known as the series with the 200mph eyesores.
