Most beautiful F1 car?

[dren]

Call me crazy, but I think the BMW f1.09 is beautiful, even if it was a dog of a car. Its apparently naive aero lent the car a somewhat romantic, retro aura.

Sorry but your crazy Great thread, Ive enjoyed flicking through....well until the BMW!

I actually like that car, too. Very simple lines, great color.

As a die hard BMW fan...that thing is horrendous.

Front wing designed by cave men.

I was actually waiting for someone to bring this up. The F1.09 was one of my favorite designs. I take back what I said about the F10, the F1.09 was the most beautiful car of late.

It's a nice looking car except for the stupid snow-plow front wing!

I remember showing a friend of mine (who doesn't watch F1 at all) the 2009 BMW when it was first shown. I was telling him how the rule changes made the cars look completely different... and guess what he said in reply? "Isn't that how F1 cars have always looked? It's exactly the same!"

Agreed I just want pull the front of the nose DOWN so it looks like the 07 BMW nose, I think that would sleek as hell.

That Williams above is really pretty but the Lotus 76 has to be one of the ugliest cars in history

And when it was launched everyone thought it was a very advanced car

Tyrrell 020

Benetton B190

The Lamborghini 291 is one of my favorites. Had the beauty of the 80s and 90s but something makes it far more elagant in my eyes: no boxy sidepods. had nicely curved ones instead...

I would add
The Ferrari 126, especially the C version


The Arrows A19 (bulged sidepods version)

And the early golden Arrows

The tyrell 012 (the black version too)


The BT52 and 55

Almost all the Lotus 'JPS' cars, especially this one

I really love the Benetton Ford B193 B of 1993 that Michael Schumacher was driving ( the first win for him for those who dont remember )

Nope, first win came year earlier.
