it'll be the season of "good liveries, too bad halo ruined it"

I am currently learning all the shades of the red color, just to be able to bitch about how Ferrari is ruining it once again and choosing the wrong tone.

Haas? Well, Magnussen did ask someone to suck his balls last year...

If the font is anything to go by, Red Bull have decided what tiny aspect of their livery to tweak for this year :roll:


This could be a massive improvement.

I have a hard time with Red Bull's font. At first sight, I can't differentiate Ricciardo and Verstappen by the number on their cars (even though this could be sorted easily, using different colors). And STR could improve it too because their font might have several purposes, but being readable isn't one of them.

Haas have scooped the entire grid by unveiling images of their car:

...it's a Haas with a Halo. Ok.

/edit: I started a car launch thread even though it's clearly renders and not a real car.

I mean, that's the only time they'll ever be able to that for the whole season, right?

The Haas 2018 car is an evolution of the 2017 model, in 2016 colors with a halo. That’s about it.

And probably just a generic version of it, as they do not want to give away any secret that they might still have to the competition.

I hope the other launches scheduled in the next couple weeks are not some bullshit dark renders like this under the excuse of secrecy.

We're soon going to watch your shitbox painfully drag its ass to the bottom of Q1, just show it already

Williams today, who at least probably won't have a white background to hide their white halo against.

There's a bunch of them on the back of the trailer, which are listed here:

McLaren need to be concerned about a lot of things, but I think their road car business is stopping finances being one of them.

Partners are normally suppliers of technology and equipment, they pay teams with goods rather than money.
