While I was considering the black Arrows designs, those were 90s cars and had to take a back seat to the Jordan and the bizarrely-attired Lolas. If only Orange hadn't climbed on board until a year later...
Is that even slower than this?! Impossible! :lol:What, this slow heap of junk?
A fully black livery makes any F1 car look very good; it enhances the most curved parts of it and makes it look... a bit sexier.
Yes, that slow heap of junk. I said it looked good - from a colour scheme point of view. That, as Lola's last almost as pathetic effort also proved (i.e. the other one I pointed out), has bugger all to with how fast it goes. The thread was on good-looking cars; despite this Lola's obvious aerodynamic megashortcomings, it's into the era of heavily-regulated identikit chassis designs, so I made my choice entirely on the colour schemes. Which is why I'm annoyed this car was so hopelessly slow, because it was only ever seen in pictures, rather than on my TV screen. I have no recollection if ITV were showing the qualifying back then; given that it was their first GP, I doubt it.What, this slow heap of junk?
Imagine if Life had tried to run two cars...The car never saw a wind tunnel either. We wont know how good or bad Sospiri was but he was a shitload quicker than his teammate anyway. Hard to get an accurate measure on him when the car is 14 seconds off the qualifying pace...
