Default On BMW-Sauber's new wings - 07-15-2006 , 02:19 AM






I'm really surprised that nobody has mentioned the Jordan's and Arrow's
raised front wings from Monaco in 2001. Back then, the Fucking
Intolerant Airheads (FIA) banned them as soon as they appeared. The
small teams innovated and were punished for it.

What gives this time? "BMW power" and BMW money? These things are
more obtrusive than the Jordan and Arrows wings and are probably a
bigger hazard.

They have FIA requested permission to use the "nose wings" (as BMW named
them), before even using them. I guess that's the difference.

And just for reference, let's have the pictures of those two cars in
action:
