It looks short and stubby and not overly pretty. I don't think the styling on all the other cars is much better, but I think they could've spent a bit more time making it look nice.

Whether or not it performs well is a question to soon be answered.

Good to see the colors green and yellow on the grid

Must be the picture angle and the colour, because that is so ugly it should have stayed on the drawing board.

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

You know what? It isn't that bad looking.
You can definately see the experience of Gascoyne in the design. It has a much more traditional/busy look about it.
The yellow wheel rims are eye catching to say the least lol.

I agree, it looks better when you look closer.  The spy shot made it look a bit like it was carved with a chainsaw
