2018 Formula E Car

Post by CK »

FIA just release some images of the 2018 Formula E car. It includes the halo and does not look bad at all.

The car looks more futuristic than the current F1 cars. The rear diffuser is huge!

Enclosed wheels, enclosed driver....should be racing at Le Mans.

I thought Formula E might be a last resort for my love of open wheel racing following the demise of my interest in F1.....but apparently not to be.

I think it looks pretty darn cool right up until just in front of the rear wheels. From there back it is absolutely horrendous.

I love the way they sound as they swoosh by. What a joke. Build the tracks in city downtowns. That way you can count anyone who lives within a 5 mile radius as a spectator :)

Looks cool, but still not a fan of that genre. Good looking cars will go a long way to winning people over.

I want to like it but it’s not doing it for me.
Latest “modern designs” have lost that clean line approach. Damn wind tunnel!

Lost somewhere in that tangled mass of carbon fiber, Lithium-ion batteries, and heavy gauge wiring is the concept of "open wheel."
