The Most Ferocious Formula 1 Car Ever w/pic

Daniel Ricciardo in trials at Barcelona this week-end


This car is about as ugly gorgeous as F1 ever gets and it looks every kind of bad-ass.  Maybe this is the most outrageous F1 car I ever saw.


However ...

Here's Ferrari.  This one is called a political statement and I don't know what that means but it is one wild-looking ride.  It is not on tracks yet.



In other F1 news, Michael Schumacher wasn't injured in racing but he suffered a profound head injury.  There has been a bit of improvement but the family is very private about it.  He always was a family guy, he's just the kind of family guy who likes to drive two hundred mph.

Jules Bianchi was injured similarly about six months ago or so and he remains in a coma although doctors have started some type of rehabilitation.  His injury was from racing and various false charges have been made about him.  It was said he did not slow down enough in bad conditions and the team has provided telemetry data showing he did.  There was also a charge that the team encouraged him to increase his speed and the full transcript of the cockpit recordings shows that never happened.  It was bad racing luck and there's been a lot of that going around this week-end.
