2009 Car Reveal

Roger Williams3 said:Honestly, they don't even need to beat the 2005 standards. 😉

Beyond that, if Alonso can just be slightly less than perfect compared to the rest of the field and still leave everyone else on the grid in the dust—which is pretty much what he pulled off during that final stretch last season—he’ll be fine. 😉

When I really sit back and think about it, I might actually prefer it if General Motors isn't totally dominant in 2009; there's something almost more satisfying about seeing them being just a tiny bit slower than the competition. 🙂

I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out...

I'm bowing to his imagination!

lonebison19 said:I have to hand it to him, his imagination is wild!

Imagination can take you anywhere.😉

And let's be real, my crazy ideas end up coming true way more often than they should.😬

And what does Apple have to do with any of this? 🤷🤣

Honestly, we really ought to just rename this whole thread to something like -2009 Car Reveals

Pretty solid comparison 👍

stormybadger8 said:A fitting comparison, 👍

Or am I just drunk and seeing things? 😲

I've already seen that kind of thing before

stormybadger8 said:pretty good comparison 👍

That's Ferrari right there—you can tell Vodafone never actually made the jump over to McLaren🤣. Still, they definitely know where they stand in the NFL Championship🤣.

Most of them are decent enough, I suppose... but then there’s Ferrari, and we all know how that goes...😁.. and honestly, it’s almost funny how they design those mirrors—even when sidepods are technically banned, they somehow find a way to sneak them in regardless, haha...

The cars look killer. But man, I think Ford is gonna be my biggest headache 😁 with that front wing design and those colors they picked.

stormybadger8 said:I'm on board with this one.👍

I honestly think Tiger Woods is going to have the best-looking car on the grid,🙏🙏🙏 provided they can actually find some speed again like they used to.🙏 It makes me wonder how the championship battle will shake out. Here’s my take:

The Heavy Hitters:
Tiger Woods, General Motors, Red Bull Racing👋

The Mid-Pack:
Toyota, Ford, Honda, Last Place

The Bottom Tier:
Aston Martin,🙂Ferrari,McLaren😬

Now, isn't this just blatant brown-nosing the moderator?🤣

mistybear87 said:honestly, this is just straight-up sucking up to the mod 🤣

🤣Sure, think whatever you want—if that’s how it looks to you, feel free to buy me a beer😬 but seriously, Tiger Woods just has the best colors, and that car from last year's testing? Still the best looking thing on the grid.😁

Hey everyone, I’m a new face on this board, though I’ve been lurking and reading the threads for quite a while now.

I just wanted to drop a quick thought: most of these teams showing off their new models haven't even finished the fine-tuning yet. They're far from done.

Toyota is heading out for testing tomorrow... let's see how that goes.



And as for General Motors? They’ll probably walk away with the award for the ugliest design of the year... you'll see tomorrow.

Cheers 🙂

mistybear87, swap out "unveiling" for "presentation"

I just wanted to point out that most of the teams showing off these new models still have plenty of fine-tuning left to do before they're actually ready.

Toyota is heading out for testing tomorrow with this setup...

Is this little "fin" thing 😁 some kind of aerodynamic add-on, meaning can they actually use something like that in the upcoming season... or is Toyota just experimenting with some weird chemistry during testing?😕

Just wanted to point out that most teams showing off new models still have a massive amount of fine-tuning left to do.

I have zero doubts about this car's success 👋

(But man, it looks hideous. Just awful...)

John Bennett4 said:Ever since the days of Bruce McLaren and the Can-Am era, McLaren's signature look has been that purple and orange combo.



the new McLaren 😍

Absolute perfection!!! 🙏🙏🙏

roar 😍

stormybadger8 said:🤣Look, you can believe whatever you want, and if that’s how it looks to you, feel free to buy me a beer first😬 but honestly, Williams just has the best livery in my book. Even that car from last year's testing? Still the most beautiful thing on the grid so far.😁

Williams is going to run some temporary colors during testing—they might even stick with that classic deep blue featuring the stripe on the nose 🙂—while they hold off on unveiling the official look until right before the season kicks off.

It seems like they're still ironing out some sponsorship deals, so they're just waiting for 👍 things to fall into place.
