Sparks!
I know this is a bit of a delayed post, but did anyone see sparks from the undertrays of the Williams cars in some races this year?

Take a look at lap 1 of Monaco through the tunnel, and both Juan and Ralf's qualifying laps, sparks from both.

I just watched a slo-mo replay of Ralf's car going through 130R at Suzuka, and there were sparks flying up.

Yeah titanium rather than wooden skid blocks would bring a large smile to my dial :-)

It'll never happen though...there not safe enough for Uncle Bernie and Auntie Max!

The skid blocks are held on with titanium fixings.

ditch the titanium and use magnesium - then we'll see some decent sparks

Formula 1 Max Power style...

Performance on the track will play second fiddle to "cool" factor in the paddock. Garish colour schemes, ridiculous spoilers, loud music, underpowered engines. Should suit Jordan then...

I miss the huge flames from the exhausts - given the periscopes now that could be really cool, but all we get now is a bid of a red glow (mainly from the Honda, hmmm)
