I think with the new narrow tires the cars are starting to look like proper race cars again...

I love it. F1 cars should have massive rear tyres in comparison to the fronts.

......and without all the nasty little aero devices. now widen the rear wing a tad and narrow up that front wing a bit and we'd be good

[Nglvayhp]

Yeah it is very silly that we went to the high rear and wide front and then the reason we did it was mooted by double diffusers...

Look at the crane hook hole under the t-cam, I can't belive that can hold the weight of car!

Times change, last year we had a thread where people thought that 2009 cars were terribly ugly compared to the cars of 2008. Now 2008 cars look really weird to me.

Thirteen years has been a long time to wait

Totally agree, I also think the refuelling ban, with the cars now having huge fuel tanks, helps the look of the car from the airbox backwards too. The air intakes now slope down more gentle rather than the spindly little things that had evolved by 2003 (which the mandatory airbox fins from 2004 then tried to hide to give more space for sponsors).

But yes, narrower front and wider rear wings would help, definitely.

Right, cars are looking better than ever now.

We have no ridiculous liveries and we´re seeing some innovation. All in all, the shark fin is not that bad (I´ve always liked it), and the biggest problem I see is the narrow rear wing. And if Renault had ELF as an sponsor instead of Total, chapeau!

Oh yes! We need to get Michelin back as well

[Accecyncphory]

A narrower and simpler front wing and a wider rear wing would be great for me. They still seem a little disproportionate to me.

[bataovady]

Narrower front and wider rear wing would be better but on the whole the new cars look nicer than last year when there were some really fugly ones (BMW, Renault)

This year I especially like the Mercedes, Ferrari and Virgin cars.

They have both, I guess they are part of the same group:

Yes, Total bought out Elf. Regardless of that fact Elf colors would make a much better livery.

From that angle I think the wide front wing is actually aesthetically pleasing-It makes the whole car look more snug behind it.

Im not a fan of the thin rear wing and wide front wing, but they do look better this year than last.

also last year i thought the area between the wheels and sidepods was just too much of an empty space, but this year i notice it less.

all in all the 2010 cars are looking alot sexier than their 2009 counterparts, and are looking as good as they did in the mid 90s.

Me too! The Superrat will always be a great fave of mine!

I was unsure in the beginning, but by now I can say that I have really started to enjoy the livery of Mercedes GP.

I think people are saying cars look "the best" largely because most have got used to those odd rear and front wings by now. Nowadays the 2008 and earlier cars look odd.

It looks better now on the new car, but I still think they could have gone a little further with the design aspect and make it look really superb. I still don't like the messy looking black spray paint look in the front and the engine cover - that kinda checkered carbon fiber looking slate gray they used on the Photoshop mockup looked a lot more modern, clean cut, and sleek. The star and Mercedes-Benz text also don't really seem to stand out as much as they should/could.

I also think that the Petronas teal actually goes well with the silver (I know some of you disagree there) and would love to see more of it, such as the ENTIRE lower half of the rear wing, and more on the side pods as well - rather than those small organic-looking splashes of it, or even the whole rear wing teal as in the Photoshop, with PETRONAS lettering in white or black.
