2009 Begins To Shape Up

More launches:

• McLaren (photos and technical analysis)
  
• Williams (photos and technical analysis)
  
• Renault (photos and technical analysis)
  
• BMW (photos and technical analysis)
  

So by my count that leaves us waiting on Force India, the Red Bull twins, and maybe whomever rescues Honda as the teams who have still not launched their 2009 cars.

Of the lot, the Renault features perhaps the ugliest nose revealed so far. However Williams and BMW seem to agree that the wider nose has its advantages.

Interesting: Canada's The Globe And Mail newspaper has covered the launch of the BMW F1 car, but has remained silent on its competitors.
