These Are Your 15 Ugliest Race Cars In Motorsport History
Motorsport is renowned for its beautiful, complicated machinery and technology – but sometimes the chase for speed results in some rather disturbing-looking race cars. Here are some of your suggestions for the ugliest motorsport machines you’ve seen

Why, Caterham? Why?

Aero all the way.

That front wing would make a great table.
7. Chaparral 2J

6 & 9 looks ridiculous. Really. Really. Ridiculous.
the Williams was nice but a lot of the 2014 f1 cars had nose that looked like a dildo
the Ferrari Williams prius and panoz is okay but the rest are ugly
Top Gear France made a race multipla too :D
Wow
It even says its self that its uglier than all the other cars
I really don’t mind the Panoz or the JE4 at all. I kinda like them, actually.
Many of them do look ugly to me in my opinion but there built for speed not looks so it’s understandable I feel
Yeah looks are not the main priority in motorsport it’s just a product of the chase for speed
The CT05 improved massively with the new nose. They had a simple (yet cool and not very common) livery and color scheme, making it the prettiest car in the whole 2014 F1 grid to me.
It looked better and I do love the colour, it just looked a bit awkward
the prius gt is the best looking one lol
I love the multipla racecar though :)
