P1racenews AI automatic summary:
We recently posed the question about which F1 car was the ugliest of all-time – and F1 fans have made their decision.
F1 fans voted the 1976 Ligier JS5 as the ugliest F1 car ever, primarily due to its oversized airbox design. The JS5 debuted in the 1976 season but was banned shortly after due to regulation changes. Despite its unattractive appearance, driver Jacques Laffite managed to achieve three podium finishes and a pole position with a different car later that year. It’s important to note that the JS5 did not receive a majority of votes, only a plurality. The Ligier just narrowly won over the Ensign N179 of 1979, known for its unique vertical nose radiators for cooling. Stay tuned for more RacingNews365 polls in the future!
