Best-looking car

Technical achievements (and lack thereof) aside, we're seeing a lot of chatter about how this year's cars look good, and varied.

Now, you may have your own criteria and it may prioritise livery over shapes, shapes over livery or be a blend of the two, but which is your favourite car? To help out, perhaps specify your criteria and rationale in a post.

Placing the teams in 2021 Constructors' Championship, for want of an order.

For me, it's the Williams. Love the nose. Love the sidepods. The deep but metallic blue is nice.

It was a close-run thing with the Ferrari which harks back to and is the cleanest-looking and nicest-looking combination I think we've seen from them since the first half of the 90s.

Ferrari for me but has a lot to do with a couple of sponsors leaving allowing them the cleaner livery.

The Aston, Williams and Mercedes are elegant, but the Ferrari evokes the iconic 640-643 so it's easily the best!

Ferrari have got it just right this year, but I also love the Merc and the Williams. To be honest, they all look good. Ferrari for me though.

I think as an all around package the Ferrari, however there are elements on the Mercedes, Williams, Red Bull, Alfa that i really like....actually theres elements on most cars that i like.

Will be interesting to see what the cars look like at the next test and first race though!

The livery on the Williams is beautiful. Hope it measures up to some degree.

Purdy...



Meanwhile Mercedes favour a return to winglets & vanes rather than the Ferrari's smooth, simple lines:

I disagree, I think Merc's simple livery is the best and the shape is quite nice

An interesting comparison here with the results of the BBC F1 site poll(s).

They ran a bracket to determine the best looking car for this season, and the results went:

Round 1
Aston Martin 7,400 - 648 Haas
Williams 6,939 - 3,033 Alfa Romeo

Quarter-finals
McLaren 8,400 - 829 Alpine
Ferrari 7,078 - 2,656 Alpha Tauri
Red Bull 1,910 - 5,900 Williams
Mercedes 5,581-4,806 Aston Martin


Semi-finals
Williams 4,949 - 4,853 Ferrari
Mercedes 5,314 - 7,765 McLaren

Final
Williams 3,812 - 6,583 McLaren

Williams looks beautiful, but Im concerned about the lack of sponsor stickers.

I think Aston Martin gets my nod
