Automotive RenderingsFX-i1 | modern F1 closed cockpit concept

I’ve started this project in 2009 right after horrible Massa’s accident on Hungaroring. I was fully aware that it won’t be easy and all open-wheeler traditionalists and fans might kill me just for thinking about closing F1 cockpits for good ;)

Anyway, I’ve decided to play with traditional look of modern F1 car and try to convince all that closed cockpit could still look good! I’ve chosen Ferrari for my concept basically because I’m a huge Ferrari fan and a huge fan of R.Kubica and I just would like to see him alongside Alonso driving for my most favourite team – that’s why you can see his name on the car. I hope someday it become reality. Get well soon Robert :)

Regarding aerodynamic properties and the way how the driver could escape from the car within 5 seconds, please do not ask me, lets leave this for those magicians like Adrian Newey, I just wanted to make it looks good ;)

The render was made in photoshop.
