Man, but next year’s F1 cars are ugly. I’ve been itching to see one up close since the regulation changes were announced earlier this year, and yesterday, at the first full test of the winter ‘off season’, I got my chance as the new breed broke cover for the first time.
You don’t feel sorry for someone like Lewis Hamilton exactly, not with the salary he’s on, the talent he’s got and the Pussycat Doll he’s, er, courting, but before yesterday’s Chinese GP I was feeling, well, a little sympathetic at the very least.
