The Williams FW26 isn't ugly at all for me. It might have an unconventional front-wing design, but that doesn't make it ugly. Aesthetics is and will always be subjective.

Lol that BMW was awesome.
I loved that car.

 

[Péter Bártfai]

What is ugly is always a subjective thing! F.e. I think that Williams is ugly as well, but I loved the X-Wing Tyrell!

 

[Hampus Andersson]

This one isn´t very pretty aswell BMW´s version looked much better imo.

Oh come on these Honda noses are cute compared to this one:

Or 2009 front wings and especially this one

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Oh come on these Honda noses are cute compared to this one:

I was actually looking for that one, for some reason i thought it was Honda that had that one, that is one ugly wing

For the BMW, yea it´s hideous. Please don´t remind me of BMW in 2009, that was a hard year to swallow after such a succesful season in 08

An interesting note is that the endplates on the front wing is to celebrate the steel factories in Germany if i´m not mistaken, maybe someone else knows more about that then me.

Since the rule changes for 2009 all F1 cars look hidious

 

[Ivo Simons]

They did change it later in the season. Looked better then the first wing.

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Looks the same to me? Maybe slightly softer in it´s shape?

 

[Ivo Simons]

That one goes more down. Wich looks quite nice to me.
This one is the ugly one.

 

[Péter Bártfai]

Yes I think it's actually that nose cone that makes it ugly

 

[Hampus Andersson]

That wasn´t what i ment even though i agree fully and now see what you mean

I mean the endplates, far left and right of the front wing. This image should tell you what i mean

When that Williams FW26 came out i hoped that everyone would follow suit.. Just thinking about the whole field with those noses and some teams going for even meaner looks..

Those elephant ears... almost too ugly to exist. The 2009 ban on those extra winglets was a good one.. or was it 2009? Yeah, it was (had to check..)

This is what I was searching for: http://richardsf1.com/2010/06/30/top-10-seriously-ugly-design-concepts/

 

[Ivo Simons]

I really dont think those 2004 and 2008 BMW are ugly.
Must say the 2008 car is one of my favorite. It looks badass.

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

And all those hybrids when wings were really added to everywhere...
