Kteo, yeah I saw that last year. That is quite a helmet. . . kind of remind me of Robotech or something. The new 5 series (E60) will have that as an option next year. Except it'll just shoot directed onto the windshield.
By the way. . .

yeah, that's scary time. But i thought they're going to make even more changes to the aerodynamics throughout the car. will have to wait and see at the beginning of the season.
i wonder if that little winlit really work, it's so small...
also they banned the x-wing a few years ago because of "safety concern" i wonder if this will get banned for the same reason.

But it looks so ugly. . . I kind of hope that it doesn't work so that we don't see it on "all" cars in a few years. Looking back at it now, I used to think that the MP4/19 had a really nice nose too, but now I think it drops down too much and is too slender.
Best right now, in my humble opinion, the F2004.

Well eCartman,
some years ago (27 to be more precise) Ferrari tested a slightly bigger 'mid' wing

Found these piccies on
http://www.aerogi.be/
aswell as the ultimate mid wing
Information as supplied by Aerogi

I came accross following picture in an old French magazine from dec 1968.
It is Jochen Rindt driving a "plane like" Brabham F2 at the GP in Albi in the third and final race in the "Trophées de France".
...unqte
