    Yeah, they've done the camo/matte look before in winter testing, I suspect we'll get a more traditional livery in Melbourne. (though maybe still matte, like last year)

    I really like this one though.

    Remember when McLaren used to tease every winter with Papaya test cars, then show up in black and silver? Now they're orange and slow

    A red team that is ditching (been ditched by?) a spanish bank will return to cigarette-brand orange-ish.

    Stupid coincidence: The 2018 Red Bull that Max Verstappen is going to be driving reminds me a lot of 1997's Tyrrell 025 which was driven by his dad.

    I hate that Castrol's people pushed for that white fill box around their logo, if a box was so necessary they should have accepted a "transparent" one. Estrella Galicia forewent their colors and it blends in much better, IMO.

    Castrol has done it in the past.

    I’m sure that the subject hasn’t escaped the minds of the graphic designers and the accountants, so Castrol would be paying a bit extra to stand out more.

    Yeah, based on the low res pic above, there's no way I can make out that it's an castrol logo if they only use the black and white design. Likewise on a speeding car on camera, one probably couldn't tell all those logos apart...

    So it's probably worth the extra money they paid to make it stand out.

    In defense of the point that my Mexican colleague is making, the logo on the Renault is white on black, while the logo on the Audi is dark grey on silver. The white stands out enough to be noticeable.
