After a week of presentations followed by four painful days of pre-season testing at the Circuit de Catalunya, we polled our readers to find out which was their favourite 2018 design.

The results are in and we have a clear winner with the House of Maranello's SF71-H which was rewarded with almost one third of your votes.

This year's prancing horse is indeed an appealing design and one which has succeeded in perfectly integrating the Halo, obviously an important aesthetic factor.

Next in line is McLaren's MCL33 which received 24 percent of your votes, thanks in no large part to the team's decision to return to its roots with its papaya orange livery.

Behind these two front-runners, a well deserved third spot on the podium goes to the Haas F1 Team which is customary now for fielding a smart looking race car, in this case the VF-18.

The US outfit's VF-18 just egdes out Mercedes' W09 which lines up fourth on your grid, followed by Renault, Sauber, Toro Rosso, Red Bull while Force India and Williams close the ranks.

Hopefully, those last two will perform better this year than you, our readers, think they look!
