Once again the new Launch Season is fast approaching..... I've decided to take up my previous threads and start one on a hypothetical launch of the AF1-007. I hope you'll indulge me once more.

Launch Date......1st January 2007.

Once again I'm not sure if it will be completely legal, or very practical but I hope it'll spark some discussions on the merits or problems of the design.

Thank you for your interest.

btw.... I'm once again open to suggestions for sponsors, however I'm intending on showing my allegiance to Cosworth for the power plant.

What a clever idea, look forward to the launch...go Cosworth!

Hmm interesting rear wing as far as i can see... And frontwing.

great a car with light-blue tyres
I'm looking forward to Jan. 1.

Excellent, I love your work. Can't wait to see it.

My industrial spy got some screenshots from it.





Seriously, nice art again expected from FW11B

Isn't that the MP4-10?

As Mika once said, "I guess it will have four black wheels, and a steering wheel." Or something like that.

Looks very interesting

1st car for the new season !! Which team is entering it ?

Thats ProDrive's entry for 2008!

PLAYLIFE

It's certainly going to be interesting to see the comments on it...... I'm concerned as to how it's going to be received, it seemed like an interesting idea when I thought of it.

AF1-007.......

Radical rear wing! I really like the V-shaped frontwing, I believe Ferrari had those in 1999 and I always liked them.

No barge boards, not even between the suspension? Interesting design in all, looking forward to your story about it.

STUNNING !! You've outdone yourself !!

Looks like you are predicting single keels for 2007.

Sponsor ?.....hmm..... Discovery Channel !


Have a wonderful 2007 !!

Hi FW11B, loving your work as always.

That's a good one, the rear wing going from the standard position of the end-plate to the engine cover. I guess it would achieve somewhere near the same amount of reduced downforce at the rear to create some fun for the drivers on rear end stability, as what Max's centreline downwash thingy whatsit , with the huge gap at the centre of the rear end and all.

I like it.

The rear wing would not create much downforce. I like it.

Thought for a second that the front wing was attached via magnetic field 'til my eyesight finally sussed the central pylon. Nice.

BRILLIANT!!!!!!
I do luv that you have a Cosworth engine!

Very interesting design choice.

The front wing very Tyrrell 1997 like, but the rear wing is something very very special, designed for more overtaking in mind?

Love the amorphous wing mirrors!

What programs do you use?

Those mirrors are gorgeous, and I love the lack of barge boards and winglets. I'd really like to see a rear view of the car so I can see what the competition will see.

I imagine a rear a lot slimmer than the Fittipaldi FD01,.......enclosed and very sleek.

Awesome!!!

Suggested sponsors:
Nike
Apple
Samsung
Nintendo

good suggestions RR

great to see you back at it again!!!

unfortunately... I can't see the images and i can't seem to find them on your site.....

FW11B,
Do you have a way to test for wind resistance and I think you should patent that rearwing!

Thanks for the feedback, I really didn't know what the response to this one was going to be.



Cinema4D, it's not the best but I can understand it and find my way around it.

Mike..... close but no prize

Beamer, try http://fw11b.topcities.com/af1-007/af1-007/album/index.html i've deleted the index file to allow access.

Do we have images of all the older ones?

It will never catch on/be allowed due to lack of space for sponser logo's.

I am amazed Ron Dennis hasn't come up with a job offer yet !!

Most of them are on my website, unfortunately I'm having problems with AF1-001

Looks great fw11b

Is the rearwing connected to the bodywork completely?

if you can't say something nice.....

That's a gorgeous looking machine!

These boards would be a desolate place.

Interesting looking car though, be interested how that rear wing would work.

Steve.

very, very cool (as usual!!!)

what would it look like in Renault 2007 colours:

Oh, and give it slicks, because any racing car looks tonnes better with them bolted on!

Now that you have enlarged it, I realise the lion is actually looking quite sad. I hope for Renault that that won't be the story of their life time from now on.

Really astonishing again FW11B. I've visited your website a few years ago, but the Renault R25 is really a masterpiece

Has to be an oversteer monster, with those little rear wing planes.

How 'bout the classic adidas logo? Although I guess that would create a few corporate hospitality conflicts with the Nike people

Maybe that image is post-alonso and this is what it would have been if he had stayed:

We'll save the laughing lion for the Dutch football squad

Slicks....

What do you think?....

It keeps looking better and better.

Wonder what it would look like in Gold Leaf or JPS livery.

Wow, with the white added to the livery it looks so much better

FW11B your artwork's wonderful, but I have to say that this time I think the car is just plain ugly. Sorry.

Neil

No problem, everyone has their own opinions.




Something like....

This is (almost) as cool as a real launch

Thanks for all your work!
