Porsche truly failed on that one.

Haha I don't know why but I think the Porsche looks to be the best of the three.

Yeah, design wise the Porsche looks the most attractive to me. Just a shit paint scheme.

I think so too (below angle is nice). But livery is the biggest fail from them all, at least they had an idea what base color Toyota and Audi might be using... :slaphead: Toyota is still quite blue and shape of the car is more different from the front, but I bet for from the average audience point of view this and Audi are going to get confused a lot.

White is the German racing color, so there is that, but I doubt this is intentional from VAG in any way.

Don't draw conclusions yet, Audi clearly running both cars in high-df setup considering both cars lack top speed.

another protip, if you're using Firefox, go in Tools, Privacy tab, then click on "remove individual cookies", type "autosport" and delete every one of them relating to the site

I'm not so surprised Porsche is that good. They are doing a much cleverer thing with the exit of airflow coming from the front end/wing. Toyota kind of went for the same path but not as refined

I'm kind of refrained to make a bet because of the sub categories thing as it varies the amount of energy that can be stored with weight limits and it's impossible, from the outside, to sort which brings more benefits but Porsche, imo, is already ahead on the aero side

When was last time you did that? It used to work immediately still sometime last year, but not anymore. I think there has to be in addition some other kind of fingerprint, with some kind of a expiration time. If it was simply a cookie thing, then just by using another browser or incognito/pivate mode would be enough. (Also, some of the main headlines are "free" anyway, that might confuse)

Yeah that used to work, but lately they have become much more clever I guess.

That Porsche is BTW an great looking car, probably the best looking from the 3. Sadly they had to put such an boring livery on it.

Edit: oh wait it actually works (or not sure if they reset the counting alreay)!

Yesterday I hit my limit of stories when clicked to see the Alonso story describing Ferrari's pace as a "nightmare", I left to see it today. Simply deleting the cookies didn't work anymore, but I did that coupled with changing my IP and it worked :p

As I use "Hola Unblocker" addon for Firefox, it's very easy to do that

I really like the look of that, anyone with me?

JUST DON'T SLAP A WHITE LIVERY ON IT OK?
