Yeah, I am aware of that, but I thought their sporting colours were a lighter blue like they ran on the car last season?

EDIT: Actually, just looked at their cricket kit, and that is somewhere in between this year's A1 livery and last year's, so I guess this year's livery guess is merely towards the other end of the light blue spectrum.

Yes, Sky Blue is India's sporting color but it is not racing color.Color is quite similar to Indian Cricket kit(Shades actually differs from series to series LOL) & A1 Team India Driver Livery color.

I think actual color will be different than shown in Graphic.Last year livery has better but hardly noticeable :D

I just got a mail from Premiere and all of sudden they tell me A1GP will be shown :o However, earlier this year they also said that NASCAR will be Live.....so I rather sit back and wait until it pops up in the broadcasting schedule.

Sorry for asking, but did India had a racing color back then (e.g. British Racing Green, German silver etc.)?

Portugal's radical new livery
Thursday, September 18, 2008

Image

A1 Team Portugal is going green this season – literally.

The team has just unveiled its radical new livery for the 2008/09 season, which is a big departure from its previous white and red-based efforts.

This artist’s impression of the new design shows it in all of its glory – and it is an impressive all green-based affair, matching the green and red of the Portuguese flag. The team will wear red race suits.

Filipe Albuquerque, announced in June as the team’s main driver, will have the privilege of racing the car this season.

The first round of the new season is at Zandvoort on 5 October, 2008.

From the limited info i have there seem to be big issues with contracts or something and the car has not been released and whoever is up top is sketchy. Don't be surprised if we don't see USA all season.

Damn, that's a shame.

Like the liveries they are revealing, india looks great and portugal looks okay, a green car is always welcome since that color isn't used much (as a base color)

Oh god, so much green. They could put a bit more red or some yellow in it, but no, looks like something i could paint in MS Paint.

Don't like the Portugal livery at all.

And if Team USA is gone from the series, that is quite frankly disastrous news.

The American public didn't really care tbh. We fielded no-name drivers (again, in the public's eyes), we've only had one poor round, and now even though AGR made *relatively* big news, this failure will set it back even further.

Though I do have to comment on AGR's recent failures - a disastrous IRL season, an even worse ALMS program, and now the loss of their Acura team in ALMS. Add to this the A1GP mess, and we've got an issue.
