Very interesting, I think Adrian Newey will be absolutely delighted with these ideas.

A gentle fade from Marlboro to Ferrari Red across the whole car would have been a much nicer touch, as it stands at the moment it looks very similar to my Max Power days. A couple of cans of spray paint later the […]

I would have thought it was obvious, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder:
The bright green against the Phillip Morris red is garish
The location of the MW branding looks wrong
The gradient to the […]Ben commented on the post, Copying rival F1 teams' innovations 'takes just two days' 1 month ago
Sure, but you get my point.
Ben commented on the post, First pictures: Ferrari presents its new SF21 F1 car for 2021 1 month ago
That. Is. Horrendous.

If I was working in F1 design, or even marketing, I would simply add something odd to the release car to distract the other teams and get press inches.

There seems to be a lot of changes coming in for 2021 for a specification that was supposed to stay still on cost grounds.

It really is when you consider how many races and seasons he’s been in the sport. It’s easy to forget how short F1 careers used to be.

Yep, this is where my vote went as well. Great drive by Sharl Legreg in a car that frankly looked 5th best all weekend. Own goals by Tracing Point (come on, who lets their lead driver fly to Mexico) and a very […]

I spotted a Tweet from McLaren about 10 mites before the F1 race started. Fired up YouTube on the big screen, watched Lando on Twitch on my mobile. It was brilliant!
While the world is going to hell, this was […]
