As far as we are on the topic, I knew the 2016 9R9 looked not too different from the 2015 car. I remember at the time thinking, they didn't put enough effort into this and could be exposed to Toyota and Audi especially if they did a good car for 2016. And the result speaks for itself so far this season, I would say.

I'm sure it's great for aerodynamics and that's all that matters but I dunno, man. Maybe if they kept it all black and fixed the headlights? something about the front leaning forward and nothing being a nice quarter sphere or straight line or airfoil or something- it's all a complex organic shape that doesn't have the "face" that the brain wants to see in a car with headlights. That and the transition from the narrow front to the (relative to the nose) wide cockpit.
