Newey's X1 Prototype - F1 car of the future?
The Formula One car of the future? Not quite... sadly.
This amazing concept, named the X1 Prototype, will feature in the upcoming Gran Turismo 5 (GT5) Playstation 3 game to be launched later this year (if it isn't delayed further).
Adrian Newey, the man behind the current championship leading F1 car, the RB6, was approached by Polyphony to design the ultimate racing car if regulations didn't exist.
It's reported that Sebastian Vettel drove the car in the game and immediately set a lap-time over 20 seconds quicker than that of the current F1 lap record - impressive!
The below images surfaced in the latest Car Magazine (via virtualr.net and wtf.co.uk - a great blog we highly recommend).
