I agree, maybe they have a few aero tweaks to add later during testing.Quote:

I would imagine we'll see some Petrov sponsors pop up in the final livery version...
How do you judge speed based merely on looks?Quote:

I think the Renault is the best looking car so far this season. Good luck to Vitaly Petrov in his rookie F1 season.
That's kind of the point of presenting your new car! :D Otherwise you might as well do a useless exercise like that "Mercedes GP Petronas Presentation" last week. :rolleyes: Even if all teams hold back their latest design secrets at the presentation, the Renault still just doesn't "look" fast... but we shall see... ;)Quote:

The Renault looks like the 1997 Jordan a little bit :)
The Sauber looks amazing - it simply HAS to be quick.
Definitely the second prettiest car of them all so far - after the MP4-25. Clean lines, sleak and nothing overtly complicated. The suspension set up is just so clear.
Love the nose and front wing.
If it goes as well as it looks, with drivers like Kubica and Petrov, it is going to be one of the successful cars of 2010.
I like the industry related sponsorship of Total - now THIS is how a racing car should be painted and sponsored. Banks just do NOT belong in racing.
Liquor and oil babies, liquor and oil!!! :-]]] Elf Acquitaine where are you - we STILL miss you!
Well, I like the Renault, but the Sauber seems conservative and ugly to me.Quote:
