Which would be faster round a track? Has an F1 car every been tried on an oval?

Answer those and you have the answer to the 'which one is better' question!

I have got used somewhat to our latest F1 cars. With 4 races done, the 'overall' looks have become more acceptable. The front wing still looks way w-i-d-e and the rear wing still a little awkward but less so than when first unveiled.
However now having seen the comparison pics the IRL car does look more low, sleek and wide, but as JamesH suggests it would be very interesting to see what the outcome would be if a F1 went round an oval. It would need setting up of course.

I think they had used the front of the 08 cars with back of the 09 cars they would look really good.

That wouldve only achieved half of the OWG's aims however.
