The shape of the Toro Rosso is the nicest in my opinion, followed by the Lotus. Livery wise I think the Force India is the best.
The McLaren looks the worst in my eyes. The livery is good, though it was better in the West days, but the shape of the car looks awful.

I quite like the livery and shape of the Force India.
Hate the McLaren livery. It's mostly their 2014 one with a 2006-2013 nose paint job. It looks awful and clueless IMO.
Not overly keen on the Williams shape but it doesn't really bother me.

Shape wise I'd say Mercedes followed by Toro Rosso, with the latter having a more aesthetic front monocoque.

Overall the Mercedes looks the prettiest - for some reason their cars from last year and this draw a comparision in my mind with the late 90s McLarens - MP4/13 and MP4/14 in the way its been slimmed and tidied up and evolved.
Jordan 191 / McLaren MP4/6 / Ferrari 641/2 and Leyton House CG901 for the WIN

mercedes reminds of cars from mid 2000s, especially mclaren with its low nose and high sidepods.

Merc hands down, I love the whole shape of it. The nose in particular.
The only thing I do not like are the turquoise colors for Petronas, other than that I love the livery it's very menacing.

Merc is a testament to refined design.
Toro Rosso has some lovely shapes and colours.
Lotus looks very clean and a tad retro.
I'd go Ferrari tbh, feels the most striking.

I think in terms of sleekness of design, it's Toro Rosso > Mercedes > Williams
In terms of livery, it's Williams > FI > Ferrari > Mercedes > Manor
Overall I would go Williams.
It's pretty interesting that Ferrari livery doesn't change much yet nobody moans about it because it's iconic. Obviously that's something Williams, Mercedes and Mclaren is aiming to do over the years, to have a characteristic livery.

I Love my Mercs
But I I'm quite fond of the Lotus and Sauber.

I'd quite like it if they went for something similar to 2007-09 or if they used more black on the wings.
But I like a good moan. I guess if it is fast, it looks good

I wish McLaren would go ahead and paint the car orange so it would be easier to tell from the Force India.

1. Mercedes
2. McLaren

People are voting for the Ferrari?
I guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.
Merc by a mile for me.

The only unpleasant part for me is the nose, which will be changed sooner or later.

The Sauber and the Toro Rosso have the prettiest lines.

Question should be changed to "so far" as I think RBR, Ferrari and McLAren are supposed to introduce new noses.
But as of Malaysia, design wise: Merc and Lotus about equal. McLaren and Ferrari ugly with their pelican noses, Williams, STR, RBR, Sauber, FI still having the nose-nubbins.
Livery: Lotus and Merc again probably. Ferrari has the wrong red again, McLAren continues to be boring, Sauber looks like a bank brochure and FI worse than last year, which I thought was nice. Williams could use less white. RBR and STR are boring corporate graphic design briefs.

I think the OP meant to say "the least ugly F1 car of 2015".
#23
Posted 30 March 2015 - 17:37
Sauber and Red Bull

(Yeah, it's the only time a McLaren will be close to a Ferrari all season ;))

If you watched the monstrosities (IndyCars) at St.Pete's yesterday, you might look at F1 cars differently.

Lotus. Ferrari/Mclaren are both hideous, and this is coming from a big Ferrari fan. Better than last year, but not by much. The Mercedes W05 and W06 are both lookers as well.

I like the shape of the Merc and the Ferrari, but I'm going to go for the Lotus because I think it looks sleek as hell.

Mercedes even with that awful green on the sidepods that looks like it's been applied with a spray can that's run out half way through the job. The car itself is a work of art and makes up for it.
Honorable mention to the TR,Ferrari and McLaren.

Mercedes' nose section looks plain and artificially shaped to me... like some generic junior formula, not like something organically shaped by great engineers to guide the air in the most effective way. I think I like McLaren and Ferrari best this year.

McLarenHonda, Because it has a design and livery that takes time to realize but once you realized, it is the most beautiful. I must admit the livery design of McLarenHonda is 4 or 5 steps more advanced than other liveries.

As for your bottom list.... Yeah I can't debate those, except maybe put the Williams FW14 in there and Ferrari F1-2000, IMO.

I know it is all a question of taste, but IMO the McLaren is absolutely awful and I don't even understand how it is 3rd in this poll.

Lol, how? It looks like a Marussia. Also, they're backmarkers with no sponsors. With a very flat livery. So, they look like a bottom feeder in every way this year.

McLaren gets my vote.

I voted in terms of livery and went for Sauber by a mile.
I would not have been saying that last year.
#45
Posted 30 March 2015 - 23:35
Manor because it reminds me of my car. Devoid of sponsors.
#46

Ferrari for obvious reasons but the Mercedes is a beautiful car as well
#47
Posted 30 March 2015 - 23:54
If they would've kept the pre-season tests front wing, it would of been Toro Rosso.
But I went with Ferrari. I cannot not vote for a sweet car with a big Alfra Romeo badge on it.

For me it's a toss up between the Ferrari and McLaren, I voted for Ferrari.
