Those are straight from Speed Racer.Ugly examples of Formula One cars you say?
Everything above is a picture of beauty compared to this.
I give you the Eifelland F1

Apologies to your eyes
Although I liked the high-airbox cars circa 1974/75, the 'teapot' Ligier was the ugliest of the lot.I agree with the March 751 but where are:
Teapot Ligier JS5
1995 McLaren MP4/10
Cosworth 4WD
Eifelland F1
You think adding wings and allowing the teams to take advantage of it for aero reasons is gonna help? Yeah, no.How can you say the halo ruins the aesthetics of the 2018 cars before even seeing a final version of the halo on an actual 2018 car?
The good ol' chode noses.The entire 2014 field should be in the list with those stupid dicks dangling on the front. Don't call them fingers. Everyone saw that they were male dangly bits. And I'm pretty confident that the teams deliberately designed them like that to get rid of them ASAP.
I couldn't believe what number 3 was!!!!!
@Liquid did you ever consider doing another of your (excellent) 'best looking F1 cars' poll series, but with not-so-best looking cars instead?
You'd be shocked, but that's actually not what I think.You think adding wings and allowing the teams to take advantage of it for aero reasons is gonna help? Yeah, no.
One thing that'll help is not being a simple bolt-on job. It won't be beautiful but it'll be a hell of a lot better than it is now.You think adding wings and allowing the teams to take advantage of it for aero reasons is gonna help? Yeah, no.
Ferrari F2012 deserves a place in this list, just look at that ridiculous nose. It's like someone slapping an Ikea table on front of an F1 car.
Brawn BGP001 is a honorary mention
Here's a BRM P201, a mid-70s F1 car that is far uglier than the P34 that got put on the list.
