Aesthetically best and worst looking F1 cars

I actually quite liked the FW26. I was dissapointed when they reverted back to a traditional nose half way through the season.

My personal favourite was the 1995 Footwork FA16, as driven by the always entertaining Taki Inoue

I can't believe that someone said last year's renault! With the big ugly block nose and the livery stolen from ronald mcdonald
 
Ooooh, I forgot the Lotus 56. One of the coolest F1 cars ever. 4wd and an engine from Pratt and Whitney - 600bhp equilivent gas turbine. :D

One of the first *if not the first* F1 cars that was left foot braking only.

Plus in the gold and black colourscheme it looks great. :D

In what way? It's all opinion of course but I love the livery, and all the winglets flow quite well imo, the winglets make it look awesome and purposeful, but doesn't make it ugly like the 2008 BMW. I also like the low rear wing compared to the cars since last year, and it looks fantastic when it had the GP2 slicks on when Schumacher was warming up for his comeback.

I liked the 'proper' Ferrari red they used in 2009 IIRC rather than the earlier one but the wings and things minged from all the cars from about 06 to 08. The 09/10 rear wings do look a bit odd and took some getting used to but watching the old races on red button shows this up a lot, its amazing how quick you get used to them.
 
Oh yes I'm used to the wings now, at first when the 2009 cars came out it looks really odd but now I don't really notice them, they connect up nicely with the sharkfin/f-duct stuff now as well. Some of the winglets I disliked, like the BMW I've mentioned and those 'dumbo' wing things on the front of the McLaren in some of the 2008 races, but I just think they look good on the f2007. I also prefer the F60 to the F10, not so much a fan of them bringing the white back onto the front wing, if they had the red front wing on the F10, in hungaroring spec (no ugly f-duct stuff, just a clean sharkfin) it would look great I think.
