NOMINATIONS: Best Looking 2010s F1 Car [Open 26/07-31/07]

[Jimlaad43]

As Liquid doesn't think the last 6 years have happened, I'm doing this.

Rules

Nominate four cars with a photo to match each.
Don't clog up the page with lots and lots of videos; links to videos are fine.
You can change your post and your nominations right up until the closing date.

Provide any supplementary information you wish, but don't give us an 8 page essay.

The top four cars with the most nominations will go through for polling next week.

Eligibility

Cars which competed in World Championship events during the 2010-2016 Formula One seasons.

Test cars such as the Toyota TF101 are not eligible.
The never-raced McLaren MP4-18 is not eligible.

If you have any quibbles about your nomination, tag me in your post and I'll get back to you.

Reasoning

If possible, please give some justification or reasoning for your nominations.
You can choose based on livery, body shape or a combination of the two. It's up to you.

[Liquid]

As Liquid doesn't think the last 6 years have happened, I'm doing this.

I've stated on numerous occasions why I wasn't including the 2010s in my series of polls. There's no need to get uppity and pass-agg about it.

 

[Nessy]

McLaren MP4-26. The one with the awesome sidepods.

 

[JR98]

2010 Ferrari F10

2012 McLaren MP4-27

2016 Renault RS16

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

As Liquid doesn't think the last 6 years have happened, I'm doing this.

Shots have been fired

I will edit my post later to add cars I feel fit this. It will be all HRTs cause they were the greatest, and then I'll put in the 2012 Caterham just to mess everything up further. I've put you all on notice

HRT F110-F112 in order descending

Caterham CT-01

W06 being my serious nomination

 

[Jimlaad43]

@Liquid, how can you vote for the best looking F1 car ever when you ignore 6 years? As I stated in the second post, in my personal opinion the best looking F1 car is from 2012, so you're automatically striking it off the list. If you wanted to do it, why not wait until the end of 2019?

 

[ButtKick]

I think it's alittle weird picking the best of a Decade half way through it.

However, I don't know why But the Livery of the 2015 Sauber C34 has been one of my favorite since I first seen it.

Other than the Sauber C34 I cant think of a single car that sticks out to me in the past 6 years. To me all the F1 cars now seem way to alike to pick a best looking out of them. The Wings, Nose and the Livery are the only real difference now.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Toro Rosso STR5

OK this is what an F1 car should look like.

Force India VJM03

Marussia MR03B

Renault RS16

 

[ButtKick]

I'm sort of anxious to see if anyone nominates the 2014 Lotus. The one with the uneven elephant tusks.

Because that just looks awful. Easily my most hated F1 car of all time.

I've always wondered if it handled better turning one direction than the other with the uneven wing

 

[sems4arsenal]

Can't believe no body nominated this

Nothing comes even close imo

 

[FutureF1]

HRT F110 - The most beautiful F1 car ever(?)

Red Bull RB12 - the nose isn't great but the livery and Neweys packaging makes up for it

Lotus E20 - god I loved stepped noses(ok sue me). This car all around was just stunning...

Ferrari F10 - I LOVE shark fins. If it was up to me, they would be mandatory in F1... They make the cars look so beautiful. And you can't go wrong with a Ferrari with a Sharkfin...

 

[SVT Cobra GT]

McLaren MP4-25

Ferrari F10 (with Marlboro sponsorship)

McLaren MP4-30 (in launch trim)

Lotus E21

 

[JC_Dude]

Oh man, so many good cars to choose from. Here goes:

Renault RS16

Manor MRT05

Red Bull RB7

Caterham CT03

 

[Ryk]

Behold the tumescent magnificence of the Caterham CT 05

 

[ButtKick]

Just out of curiosity why does everyone keep nominating the Renault RS16 ?
It has 3 nominations and no one has posted a reason.

It's such a plain looking car I'm surprised it garnered so much attention.

 

[JC_Dude]

It looks great and has a fantastic livery.

 

[Bo]

It's such a plain looking car I'm surprised it garnered so much attention.

For the most part people like to pretend they've never seen a yellow racing car before.

It has a nice nose though, that's something.

2010, Hispania F110 - It's pretty.

2011, Hispania F111 - THIS COULD BE YOU

2012, HRT F112 - It's pretty.

2013, Caterham CT03 - Green and yellow works. Use it more.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

It's Caramel Diary Milk colour

 

[mustafur]

Sauber C32 - 2013 Simple clean dark livery which had a good presence compared to the rest of the grid at the time

RedBull RB12 - 2016 Although it's the current livery and hasn't had time to build nostalgia, this is probably the cleanest livery Redbull have ever had, and it goes well with the cleaner refined looks of the New Era Body style, Matte paint makes it stand out

 

[Clark]

2009 Renault R30

2016 McLaren MP4/31 Honda

2010 Ferrari F10

2014 Williams FW36 Mercedes
