Editors Note: When TJ13 started the vision was simple, the voice of Formula 1 fans – by the fans for the fans. As the TJ13 community grew more and more people from different walks of life shed light on aspects of the sport that they find interesting. The result is that the content published through TJ13 is different and often unique but more than that, it gives the community a voice.
In the first article of ‘Echoes of a nearby future‘, Andries explored the effect regulations have on creative designs. With a possible major revamp of the rules will we see the beasts unleashed once more?

Very cool designs… Let’s hope at least some of this will become reality…
They are kind of nice. I also noticed two tailpipes.
Why is the rear spoiler so small?
I do like the black liveries!
Shame Formula E weren’t awake up to concepts such as these…..
I have to say, it’s not as nice as the Williams concept car from a few weeks back. I really thought that design looked ‘mean’ these pictures are just too close to what we already have.
(Those were from Andries as well)
I like different aspects of both, but they are waaaaayyyyyyy better than that Ferrari-thing!
2017 is too early. 2020 would be the best date.
They just look like what we had prior to the new Power Units with the mandated fixed position single tail pipe exhausts, all be it these designs are glossy and a bit sleeker looking.
Tbh we need rules that balances out the engineering and Aerodynamics of the cars, so we get better racing i.e. reduce the need for DRS type gimmicks and put the onus on drivers to overtake properly. Guess I’m sounding a tad old fashioned.
stunning. let’s hope this becomes reality.
