Ladies and gentlemen, subtlety.

Or perhaps I should say SUBTLETY!

If that doesn't work:

I recall Schumacher and Irvine looked like walking packs of cigarettes, somewhere before the turn of the millennium. When Red Bull had their own team, they weren't too subtle, either. In Haas's case, it's just that they could use a sponsor right around the location of the solar plexus.
 
Can't wait to wake up tomorrow and check out the car. Havent been this excited about a car launch in a while, I'm very interested in how similar it is to the Ferrari.
 
Yeah, it's annoying that it gets launched at 1:00am my time.

I wonder what they'll call it. Probably something like the "Haas GH01".
 
Motorsport.com is reporting that the car has completed it first installation lap after an oil leak sidelined it yesterday.
 
Damn that livery is actually awesome. Just hope Manor turn up with some blue now.

Obviously there is a Stars and Stripes...
 
Velociraptor Falcon 2016?


Seems to be a bit of a cross between the Manor and Force India from last year.



Force India, please go back to your Indian flag design from 2009-13
 
VF-16.

They used the designation for Navy fighter sqaudron's/individual fighters. That's 🤬 awesome.
It's actually the name they use for all their automation equipment. VF - ?

I hated the design btw.
The red nose looks bizarre, the whole thing is very underwhelming and the engine cover with the Haas Automation Inc. writing is terrible. They should have put the big red, round H there.
 
I think the car and livery look very clean, not bad for a new entry. Reminds me a lot of the HRT back in '10.

The front wing looks kind of a Mercedes and Ferrari 2015 front wing mix.
 
Still better than last year's McLaren livery.

Loads of silver, black, white, and red this year. The days of the flashy Ligier, Jordan, Benetton, Williams Grand Prix Engineering are long in the past, but vivid in memory.
 
Pretty Meh Livery, is every team still doing the cover the creative car body parts bits in black as to sort of obstruct them?

Reverse Mickey mouse exhaust like the SFIGH as well
 
Missing a bit Stars & Stripes element in the livery, but overall it looks pretty darn good!

Their racing outfits look pretty spectacular.
