I did not even make 5 minutes of watching the launch.... switched it off after the bullshit flashing lights computer graphic infested unwatchable trip through history. If that appeals to the target fan then its no wonder it has all turned to shite. I dont fit their profile. Sad.

I turned it on right at the end and there were 2 dj's working a deck whilst lights were shone on the car. Utter crap.

Okay boomers. Clearly none of you know what cool is.

I, however, am down with the music of the street, and I'm totally vibing with the tunes.

:haha: :haha: I had to laugh.... they are just showing the 2022 New car launch on TV and prior to the show it had an Epilepsy Flashing lights warning saying not suitable for some people because of flashing lights! :nuts:

I guess that is their way of bringing back danger to F1. :dunno: :wink:

Despite the big nose and wing, I think it looks fine. I wonder how much scope the teams will get to give their own interpretation.

I'm looking forward to how the ground effect will affect closer racing.

Very little, apparently. They are making damn sure this time that the cars will be able to race each other and the designers are working to the strictest set of rules ever. The teams will have more freedom with the stuff going on underneath the shell. But you'll need an expert eye to tell the cars apart.

So if you think the cars looked similar this year, just wait. That said, I like the car. Looks way better than the 2021 cars. I saw a side-by-side of the two cars and the current cars already look obsolete. That said the 2021 car was the Williams so that might go some way in explaining it.

If the designers were given a carte blanche to designer the fastest car they could we would probably end up with 10 unique cars but none that would be able to race each other for shit. In which case I'll prefer F1 going down this route.

Ultimately self preservation is the chosen way forward for F1. That's fuck the fans, fuck the history, do whatever it takes to survive.

Some we'll agree with, some we won't.
