50 Greatest liveries of all time.

[Ardius]

I've always found pink to be an under-used colour in motorsports. Maybe because pink is traditionally a "girl's" colour and motorsport is almost unanimously masculine. But pink is a particularly powerful colour, especially the darker shades:

Enter David Pinkney:

Resol Escort WRC

Minardi Fondmetal 2000

This is how you do a livery:

Hopefully DJR keep them for some time to come.

It may be imaginary, but it kicks @$$

And, of course, Greg Murphy has another graffiti-style Pepsi Max design:

If good liveries made cars go faster, then I expect Murphy, Winterbottom and Webb will be very competitive ...

Only problem is that Murph's car isn't #51.

But what about the 2004 Saleen Vitaphone livery

 

[prisonermonkeys]

It has to do with the way Racing Entitlement Contracts are divided up. Drivers don't own numbers - teams do. The REC is registered with a particular number for a particular car. When a driver like Murphy joins a team, they can apply to have the number changed. That way, Murphy can race under the number 51. However, Murphy joined Kelly Racing too late to have the number changed, so it was decided that they would run with the number 11, because that is the number the REC is registered under. The 51 was 'protected' - preventing it from being used by another driver - by being given to Fujitsu driver Daniel Jilesen, who is supported by Murphy.

Oh, thanks for clearing that up, .

I really like this year's DAMS livery in GP2:

The red doesn't seem tacked-on the way it is on the Renault R31. Honestly, I hope next year's Renault goes in for something like this.

If they're changing to "Lotus" though, isn't green or black more likely? Yellow and black is more Renault colours.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

I think they've said they'll keep the black and gold. But I could see the yellow replaced by a sort of sandy-gold colour.

 

[Miklad]

Could I add this to the list?

Not that I'm biased - I designed it.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Yeeah.

 

[axletramp]

East McLaransky?

Oh Yeah!

This looks good aswell...

 

[Prince.M5]

Another one that I think, is simply awesome is the Ford Performance Racing Falcon.

 

[hampus_dh]

I love my Gulf´s Martini´s FINA´s etc but there´s only one true livery

but the finest Scuderia Ferrari livery is the Red & Black one.

 

[Azure Flare]

Its the slowest thing ever, but....

 

[C Ronaldo 7]

 

[Pescara for GT5]

Surprised this didn't make it, that was so popular that his pit crew got nicknamed the Rainbow Warriors.

 

[Sam48]

^You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find a good real life picture of this car.

 

[dhandeh]

Gets a 👍 from me.

I made a replica of that on Forza (massively unaccurate) but better than nothing

How bout the Red Bull livery. It's in just about every form of motorsports.

 

[Azure Flare]

This is what a hybrid should be.
