Ouch.  Yet again all the top cars get trashed. :'(

Mind you it happens just about every year in F1 ;)  and its time Porsche came back seriously - most of the best races have featured a Porker on the podium

Hope they re-body it as a coupe though, prehaps get Gulf sponsership, that colour scheme might look quiet good.
