Perhaps you've seen this ugly car made by Honda this year.
If not, here are some links to the car:

That's violence to my eyes. Terrible! =; :-&

Some years ago still named BAR and with Lucky Strike as main-sponsor they had such nice designs, especially on the fridays for the 3rd car of Davidson... I would fire the complete design stuff, too, like someone mentioned in another thread!

Which design do you mean? Do you have pictures of it?

There's one good thing about it though: You can actually see the number on the rear-wing endplate. i seem to remember that there was a rule governing car numbers; they had to be visible from the side and from the top. Anyone else remember this rule? So fair play to Honda for having nice big numbers on the car.

@ TdK and everyone who worked with the Honda last year: Do you have an earth-texture which was in use with the Hona livery of the year 2007? I used a car-texture of a GP4-car but it didn't worked well....

I used the pictures from the 'www.myearthdream.com' car, and transformed/scaled it to the shape of the Gp2 car. After that i changed the colors, and maked some parts more clear/sharper.

So, no, i haven't used a picture of a globe for the Honda. Just the ones available from the 'myearthdream' website.

Very very Ugly liveries, same opinion as you, too!

I think Renault guys are happy, now they won´t have the ugliest painted F1 car in the grid!
