Still the wrong red mind.Shock as new Ferrari is.... red!
Interesting that they've gone with a McLaren
/ BMW style high airbox, the mid wing this early is unusual too, most teams don't add those until the season is almost upon us.F1 2007/2008 Winter Testing and Rumours

The nose stands out the most changed, plus the higher driver side protection.

Is there actually a car under there or is it just a collection of aero tweaks and 4 wheels
The only word which springs to mind is.... fugly!

I actually think that it looks great. Probably the best looking Ferrari I have ever seen, though that could be down to the clean paint job that it is sporting.

I mean fair play to the aero engineers for getting all that mess to function together, and I bet in clean air it sticks like you know what to a you know what, but come on, this is getting silly now. It's going to get to the stage where a sneeze in front of the car will cause it to lose all downforce.
I hope I'm wrong, but if anything gets in front of that Ferrari I can't see it getting anywhere near close enough to pass in the dirty air.
The 1995 does have extremely clean lines. I'll give you that. But the new car does look high tech and very complex.
As for the 1968 banger, that belongs in a museum or a scrap heap.
I think it looks nice than all 3 of them. But then I do prefer the looks of the newer F1 cars.
Not my cup of tea, best phase was the early 90's in my view. The post-Senna safety regulations ruined the look. View footage from the early 90's and you can see the drivers hard at work inside the car whereas nowadays you get the top half of a helmet peeking out from inside a padded cocoon.
The modern cars are an aesthetic mess - all stuck on winglets, chimneys, scoops etc. A good livery design like last years McLaren can help disguise this tho.
Some more photos released, they are a bit clearer than the earlier ones.

That looks rubbish.
