Re: F1 2023 Launch topic
All the launch dates are sorted.
I'll hazard a guess the red bull will look how it always does and Williams will have a sponsor no one's heard of
And at some point Rich Energy will say they're almost back!

And one thing is for certain. None of them will look exactly like they will at the test or for Round 1.

Black white and red is surely the most overused and boring colour scheme in motorsport.

I bet we will still see lots of black so they can keep these whales as light as possible and not have to paint/vinyl those sections.

I'm getting Minardi vibes from that Haas, which is probably not a good thing.

Red Bull doing a livery launch next - why do they even bother? At least the HAAS looks different.

RB19
I could have posted this picture 4 months ago
But in added news, Ford are taking over from Honda in the Red Bull from 2026.

The Ford news has been brewing. This is pretty big I think. Is Cosworth still a thing?

No wonder Christian Horner was rumoured to be one of the most vocal proponents of Andretti/Cadillac entering F1.

Reigning champions Red Bull will run fan-designed custom liveries on their recently-unveiled RB19 at all three Grands Prix in the United States this season, the team revealed on Friday.

Yeah. Neat design.
I also read that with the Gulf backing they'll actually be able to hit the cost cap limit this year.

Guess the theme of less paint to drop weight is going to keep going

The weight limit is 2Kg less than last year and they all struggled to make the weight as it was.

They're apparently the only ones to have shown this year's car so far, so they might all end up looking like this as a response to the new ride height rules?

Re: F1 2023 Launch topic
So much so that Gulf are already asking for a full "Gulf" livery at some races this year.

Re: F1 2023 Launch topic
It actually sounds like Gulf have been surprised by the brand interest and how much people want to see the full livery on an F1 car. I suspect they might regret the opportunity if they don't.
