Remember when Formula One cars used to be gorgeous? Those were the days, weren’t they?

Sadly, only the visually impaired will call the Red Bull RB8 attractive, and that’s assuming they never get close enough to it to feel its bifurcated nose with their enhanced sense of touch. If you can ignore its beak, though, the RB8 isn’t half bad; it still wears gorgeous primary-colored Red Bull livery, and between the axles, its swoops and curves are almost attractive. But God, that nose.

Even worse, assuming Sebastian Vettel has another year like he did last season, we’re going to be an awful lot of it at the front of the pack. Ugh.
