Looks just like some form of mobile van advertising hording, oh hang on, that's what it's supposed to be.....

Although I agree the vertical fins are fugly, I'm sure you know really why they are there, Mike.

They were introduced as a safety measure, after Marc Gene's crash in testing at Le Mans in 2008.

IE to stop scary sh1t like this from happening : https://youtu.be/YCRQ1kS5B74

While I understand the reasoning, they are monumentally ugly and that's something racing cars and boats should never be.
It's also a real shame the cars are so similar, strip the branding off and I couldn't tell them apart

Ha thanks Mitch, they obviously made the steering wheel from an old shoe box!

Chevychase, is there a way you can reduce the size of your pictures, and with a bit of luck, improve the quality?
