Sebastian Vettel’s new car for the 2010 Formula One championship will be called “‘Luscious Liz” according to a report issued by the GMM news agency. This will be the second time the 22-year old German driver will change the name of his F1 challenger, after previously driving “Kate’s Dirty Sister” to runner-up spot in the 2009 drivers’ classification.

The name belonged to the team’s 2009 single-seater, the RB5, as the team piggybacked on the name of their previous car, the RB4 - named Kate. Since the last year’s car was obviously more aggressive and efficient in terms of points scored in the series - 6 wins and 2nd place in the manufacturers’ classification - it was nicknamed as a “dirtier” version of Kate.
