What is it that you see that evokes your reaction? I 'll admit - I'm not seeing much on the car that stands out - could be the all black, could be my old eyes, could be complete ignorance.
Also - definately '05 aero. The front wing endplates looks around 50mm higher. In essence it looks as if all the team have done is shorten the 'prongs' which hold the front wing on as the wing elements themselves look exactly the same shape and size as used at say the British GP.
Whatever colour it is, I hope it is based on a recurrent thematic element of design (or as Quig stated, a motif!)
What we don't need is the 'chaos of colour' (or 'color' for our North Amercian firends ;) ) from last year. A repeat of the disorderly mass that was the PS04B will definitely NOT attract any type of serious sponsor.

Point some things out Young Jedi.
Because F1 cars, especially Minardi's, look that way in all black.
Hmmmmm........Those filing cabinet sidepods are looking particularly unhip compared to the radical sweep in/down pods on the as-yet unveiled cars. One wonders whether this is the area in which Cossie are assisting, vis tight cowls, good cooling. I certainly hope so.
That front wing looks like the same crap with shorter supports. I hope they do something about it. I have a strong sense that this is going to be the key area for those that get it right.

I was thinking why not have a black car with the same sword 'motif' as the 2001 car, but have them done in yellow? It would be reminiscent of Minardi's past, it would look fucking cool and would fill in the lack of yellow on the grid courtesy of JordanGP becoming Midlands...

Mhm..... the pictures look like 05-Aerodynaik. Bad conditions, 05 aero and only 3 secounds slower.... I don't think that's too bad, isn't it?

Had bargeboards however?

Yes, I used the term motif.

now throw in a little yellow and it'll be perfect :D
Hey, we should approach Willkerson Sword, that seems like a theme made in heaven.
Marc Sparks
So, why is Muermans on the car??????
It would be more logical to have Superfund, because they are sponsoring Pastorelli's test !?!?!
I like the all black car but I notice the new regs front wing is white so I expect the white sidepods may still be back.
Hope the weather improves

But the black car looks great! Think JVC on it....could be nice!
Green, Black & Orange.
Sauber has Blue (though Blue/white would be OK)
Yellow may become available but we wouldn't want to become jordan knock-offs
Black is my pick, but if SuperFund come to the party, why not a green base colour?
I like this scheme...
