I agree about HRT being terrible looking... I sorta thought "This is a cool spot" was a sort of enticement for advertisers to buy that spot on their car. I didn't see the "this is the end of car" one you refer to.

.................the only car that still has some spunk is the Ferrari .
Is that the Ferrari that's been red a bit longer than the Mclaren's been the ever so unoriginal silver?

i'm just saying silver seems to be overused, and when it comes to adding color on the track, silver kinda blends in with the rest of the muted colors. I think the fact that both McLaren and Mercedes are basically silver, it serves to make both liveries looks bland

Going back to Renault colour, personally I missed having a predominantly black car on the grid. I think they have tried to go for the look of Mansells JPS car of 88 -

Always had a menacing look when it was sitting there waiting for the lights to go out!

Agree that Renault could have thought more carefully about the sponsor's colours on their Black/gold livery though!

That's exactly what they did. They've made no bones about it, it's a throwback livery. Yes, a throwback livery to a team they have literally nothing to do with whatsoever in any way, shape or form.

Group Lotus...I am SO glad you sold the 7 to Caterham, because I can't stand to think of you any more.

The new HRT? I like that one too. Much better than the grey and orane/red monstrosity they were using last year.

The HRT livery from this year looks like something a child put together. Its hard to say if it is an improvement from last year. Maybe they are both just as ugly.

Seriously? You sticking with that statement?

You know nothing about design aesthetics.
