The 2010 car looked pretty good tho in hindsight. Shame about that fuel tank. The low nose cars look much worse. motherfuck driver safety. Blood for the blood god.

Is the death of manor going to resurrect the not-enough-cars clause of some-contract-with-the-teams whereby some teams might be required to run more cars? Oh I guess not with Haas in there now. Also Haas kicking rear end which Europeans such as Manor/Sauber/Caterham/McLaren are incapable of doing. Boom. Suck it, Europe.

Also they had no sponsors, so they could paint the car whatever they wanted.

Did they not have enough money for a front wing that year or am I going blind?

Oh I guess not with Haas in there now. Also Haas kicking rear end which Europeans such as Manor/Sauber/Caterham/McLaren are incapable of doing. Boom. Suck it, Europe. The rumoured clause was in the CVC contract, and it was that if there were less than 22 cars on the grid then Bernie got fired. Even with Haas it's 20 in 2017, but I bet if Bernie was still in charge then manor would have found a mysterious buyer. Odd how the mysterious buyer Manor had suddenly vanished after Bernie got fired.

If Ron bought Manor he would instantly find a title sponsor, just out of spite.

Serious question: Did Mika have a legit mental breakdown in '99? I just watched him spin out at Monza and I seriously don't understand how he's driving this bad. Edit: lmbo now he's crying.

I remember him legit thinking he was going to die all the time, after his first horror crash, and this would stress him out. AFAIK Brazil 2001 (where he got stuck on the grid) was when he decided he would retire that season.

List of attractive high nose designs; - Tyrrell 019 - Tyrrell 020 series - Benetton B191-B194 after a 26 of vodka - Cars from the 1997 season.

I'm not sure if the force India dick nose does not edge it out, at least caterham had the good grace to paint it the same colour as the rest of the car.

Force India were trying to make it less apparent that there was a giant dildo stapled to the nose by blending it in with the black on the inside of the nose. You can't fault them for trying.

I will honestly say that Irvine was a more deserving champ in 1999 than Hakkinen. He wasn't that fast but at least mostly refrained from melting down unlike certain Finns.

I seriously can't wrap my mind around how he melted down that badly with that car against Irvine in a gimped Ferrari and Frentzen in a loving Jordan with a Mugen engine. Like its just amazing to watch.
