They're fine until you notice that rear wing. I still can't believe they went with it.

But, guys! Just think of how effective DRS will be once that huge sail is folded out of the way! We'll see such wonderful "racing"! Isn't it marvellous?

It wouldn't be so bad if the F2 cars didn't suffer from the same problems as the current F1 cars; they are about 3 times as long as they are wide. Why the FIA has such a problem with widening the track of the cars I have no idea. You would think after Spa 2019 widening the cars to allow for more side impact protection would have been a priority, but no. In fact, I don't think the width of the new car has been increased at all, it remains at 1900mm.

I hope they had time to run them through the wind tunnel backwards......

I don't want to get my most upvoted post again by predicting the fact that they might start lifting too much when going backwards at high speed when they suddenly start flipping :whistling:

It will take a while to get used to those "batcape" rear wings. As a person who hates DRS, it won't be easy. :yuk:
