check out the wacky new Williams
I'm glad Williams and McLaren are finally doing some more exotic designs (remember that McLaren has the skinny, evil anteater look to it's nose). I was getting bored with the sameness of all the F1 cars of late.
Williams FW26:
Here's the McLaren MP4-19:

And if that's the case, expect all of the F1 cars to look like the FW26 in 2005.

Trench, the new Ferrari was the fastest Ferrari out of the box of any new Ferrari GP car at Fiorano. MS commented that it required no break in time to get used too. He put in 34 very consistent laps. Don't forget MS did win 6 races with last years car to Kimi's one. Kimi did make up for the difference by being reliable and consistent along with the new points distribution. I don't see the ugly BMW-Williams doing much on high speed sections, considering the significant increase in drag from that front end. Although it may help on the slower sections/circuits by providing more front end downforce. The only handicap I see for Ferrari may be in the tires
