HRT liverys continue to be one big yawn after another...
bring back the black.

1996 - VS with Lowndes/Brock. By far my favourite livery. Then go back before that to the white and black to get the next best looking stuff.

I'm with Exar

Anything would almost be an improvement over last year

I agree, but that was Mobils colors, this is Holdens. He who pays the bills wins

I guess you're right. I never actually noticed when people stopped calling the team 'Mobil HRT' everytime they talked about them. They really slowly slipped the red in there too. There was just one day where I was shocked to realise I was now going for the red cars!

i quite like it...
last years, with the black, didnt do it for me..
i have to say though, it looks a little too red?

doesnt matter, the telecast doesnt focus on the rear of the field that much anyway.

I wonder if Team400 will try steal this livery as well like they did with last years....

Looks pretty good in my opinion, i think its one of the best we will see if not the best but because HRT rarely change there colours it wont really have such a big impact.

Someone made up a fake livery with the old black rear end from the VP Supercar days...remember when the lion and racer were black? And kept the the red and white front, it looked awesome!!! i so hope HRT do that for next year.
