Default New meaning to 'exploded view' of an F1 Car

Honda Racing F1 'View Suspended'

View Suspended is a stunning art installation created from the thousands of parts that make up a Honda Racing F1 car.

The amazing display was created especially for the event by Dutch artist Paul Veroude. Each of the 3200 parts of the Formula 1 car are suspended on fine wires to produce a 3D 'exploded diagram' that allows race fans the chance to get closer than ever to the engineering secrets of the world's most technically-advanced sport...

I don't know much about art, but I know what I like.

Appealing on several levels. Eery on at least one - evocative
of reconstructions performed during aircraft crash investigations.

No wonder why they aren't winning races. They spend all their time building cool things for us to look at. Cool find!!!

Looks like it creates a lot of extra aerodynamic drag
