This is prettier than Scarbs' illustration - and it says much.

The monkey(!!?!) above ? Not so much :D
Education is that which allows a nation free, independent, reputable life, and function as a high society; or it condemns it to captivity and poverty.

Hmm the Scarbs Version is really ugly, but smirkoffs Model is actually quite nice.
I rely on McLaren to build the beautiful Version of it. ^^

If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Just a photoshopped version of this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/boushh_tfa/8551910355/

If you look at the track above the shopped nose you still can see the shape of the real one.
Dear FIA, if you read this, please pm me for a redesign of the Technical Regulations to avoid finger nose shapes for 2016! :-)

I wonder, why the FW can't be mounted on the protruding part of the nose?
Is it to use supports as flow conditioners?
Maybe we'd see a triple support?

Will not be possible as a maximum of two sections is allowed.. And the pillars must project vertically from a point 125mm above the reference plane and join the mandatory middle part of the frontwing.
