Barring the Mclaren, every car so far looks like shit.

Has no-one else noticed that the Sauber is basically almost exactly the same car as the Ferrari but with a few minor differences (longer nose cone for instance, no gaps over airbox) and a different livery.

Where is the Red Bull? Wasn't it supposed to be presented right now?

Indeed, right now. So I reckon pictures will be uploaded any moment now. Be patient and in the meanwhile, keep checking different sites as I am doing ;)

EDIT: There you go.

They've done something strange with the stepped nose, or is it just the light?

Looks like a mini micro wing inside the step!

It'll be hilarious if McLaren is not only best looking but fastest...

Except Mclaren, all F1 cars are a real downer so far.

It's not a bad job with the nose with Red Bull...

As it looks, Adrian Newey's car comes with the most sophisticated approach of the 'step nose' - no surprise there.

Although I expect Mercedes to come up with a radical design.

Yeah, or looks like an air intake for something...

Newey's genius comes up with an idea to gain an advantage with the stepped nose rather then the Ferrari approach.

Sauber look to have an air intake on the underside of the nose with the exit at the top of the hump á la Ferrari in 2008
