Those front vertical things are really ugly! They will probably ban them soon!
That would make my ex very happy......but I assume you are talking about an aero device or two around the front end....Pics Ed......we need pics :shock:

interesting that Frank is going to lose his seat to a fella that is more than 3 secs slower :shock: If Yammy is going to be the ducks uts I would expect him to be within 1-1:5 seconds of Franks time 8)

Yes they are two aero devices! If you've noticed those 'ears' on the Renault, these are in the same place but go up vertically.

We'll post a photo as soon as possible.
