Ooh er. I think the last radical design was the twin bottomed ferrari, and that did really well. Not.

Interesting concept, and I suspect it'll work. The way the "tusks" smooth and direct the airflow around the front of the car looks very elegant. I'd also imagine that this solution is lighter than the more conventional nose on last year's car, allowing them to run more ballast within the wheelbase.

It's high time we saw something a bit new/different in F1. Designs have been a bit too samey over the last few years, good to see that Williams have finally come up with something a bit radical.

With a chin like that Michael Schumacher should be driving it. So much for the " if it looks right, it is right" school of design
