Are they all going to ming like this, with the weird nose :confused:

The rear is very tightly packed (some good pics in the mag). They are all going to look horrendous with those front noses though.

When the lower front nose regulations were mentioned, I was hoping they would look more like the Brawn car.

Fired up for the first time last Friday - http://www.caterhamf1.com/news/2012/caterham-ct01-fire-up

Another important milestone in the life of CT01 was achieved today when the Renault Sport F1 engine was fired up for the first time at the factory in Hingham.

Firing up the engine for the first time is a key part of the new car build process, as it allows the team to check that all the systems are working as they should, and to take a look at the basic architecture of all the mechanical and electronic items that are usually covered by the bodywork.

Everything went according to plan and now work continues in preparation for the first test at Jerez, starting on February 7th.
