Lotus T127 Cosworth

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Pandamasque, Gascoyne has a company in Cologne called MGI Ltd that seems to be doing work in the car. At least that was reported in the news when Litespeed was trying to get into F1.
So the work is not being carried at Toyota, and this car isn't the Toyota 2010 car.

Apologies for that sensationalist Watermark, but seemed relevant to the topic of conversation.

i think it is a driving refridgurator.

Seriously, if they want to score any top ten finishes they will have to come with something better.

Now now...lets face it - first car should be safe and reliable first...finishing is more important than wow factor.

Yes I agree it looks on the face of it "simple" it's first evolution of a car that's taken what 5months to go from idea to track...

All the big teams would struggle to do that!

Lets just concratulate them for turning up to the party unlike USF1 and Campos!

apparently they are already working on major upgrade coming so hopefully it will not be simple as this initial model.

That is what we got with the ban of aero appendages... :x

I don't think that it looks too bad... At least it looks like a F1 car and it's real :).
I hope that it is a solid basic design to build upon.

Hopefully they figured out their lefts from rights as they've mounted or labeled the front tires backwards in that initial pic :lol:

Oh God! you read my mind.. :lol:

But I think it looks cool. Fridges are cool right..

I really like the boxy looks coupled with the green, looks militant. I hope it can complete the mission. :wink:

But it has a new front wing Γ  la Brawn and new deflectors near the sidepods.

You guys have to admit those front wing end-plates look very developed!
