Oh, and worst livery is HRT. The car looks like someone puked on it, and lets not forget the lame "THIS IS A COOL SPOT"...." THIS IS THE END OF CAR"...wtf?? this is a serious business, not abstract art.

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.

You mean it wasn't a 7UP advert?

Heart = broken.

.......... the ever so unoriginal silver treatment for the McLarens
.................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?

[Tsakali]

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.

Well I like it. I even like the red Total patches.

But then again, I also like the HRT, so...

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

[acosmichippo]

Yeah. I think it's my favorite livery in the field.

[mrp101]

I must say that the Renault livery is my favorite of the year. And I love Heidfeld's helmet. I love the "throwback" livery they are running. Very cool, very cool

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.

[The Ram]

you guys have no imagination....HRT is hot

[acosmichippo]

I agree.

Not liking it is one thing, but saying it looks like a child designed it is a little demeaning. Then again, I'd rather look at something a child put together than corporation logos plastered on every surface.

Seriously? You sticking with that statement?

You know nothing about design aesthetics.

The white carbon fiber looks neat too.
