We had plenty of bizarre little wings and "Dumbo Ears" tested already this season.
FIA is considering to ban most of them on the ground of them producing dirty air and thus preventing good and healthy racing.
But who knows, maybe they just find them too ugly, like most of us!

why the hell not... the cars would look a lot nicer without those winglets on it... the new honda thing is just the pits!!
yep its just the honda with loads of ugly winglets......
They all have a slew of little twists, winglets, flips and flow channelers besides the main wings and diffuser. And from my point of view, the sooner they are banned the better.
In my perfect world, diffuser profiles would be restricted to the sidepods, with no diffusor exists behind the leading edge of the rear wheels and only a single-element rear wing. That would help clean up the wakes cars leave and allow a faster closing car to set up for a pass.

FIA planning to do something sensible? No way! :eek:
The worst winglets are SIDEPOD SHIELDS. Especially McLaren's. Man that is ugly.

WOW those sidepod shields are really huge! :D
I think it would be a great idea to outlaw all winglets and flip-ups.
