And that’s not the official livery, it is a “one-off” according to Red Bull Racing

Presumably their done before style of a testing / disguise livery before reverting to the usual same old same old for Australia.

I was not offended by last years BWT / Force India livery, but the Racing Point livery is just hideous.

No, as I said two posts ago, a testing livery only, as they have done many times before. Situation will be usual Red Bull livery for Australia.

Below is their 2015 testing livery as a reminder.

Red Bull, like F1, continues to disappoint me.

Be avant-garde, just for once. Please.

That Red Bull livery is sweet. Too bad it's their testing livery, once again. Only disappointed by Racing Pointless so far.

I like the Racing Point livery. Red Bull livery is cool but way too busy, which means I can't like it.

Are we returning to step noses again? The RedBull has a definite step (with some device thrown on top) and the Raining Force India has a weird angle change that makes me feel uncomfortable.

Yuk!

However, the Merc seems nice. And contrary to popular opinion, I like the Williams.
I like how thin the Renault is at the rear (see overhead shot). Amazing they can fit the engine.

The HAAS design is like putting a pinkie toe into the Black n' Gold livery. Lots of black, but very little gold. They need to be all in or pick something else.

I like this livery. The car has been hit with the ugly stick, as all F1 cars are ugly as sin, but the livery is the best looking one so far. Unlike RP Force India (or whatever it's called), they made a two-colored livery work real nice.

The Sauber broke cover doing a 'filming day' at Fiorano. Kimi had the honour of running it today.
The car looks a lot cleaner than others... perhaps a spin off of the interim livery it ran in. It appeared in a black-and-red camouflage livery.

The livery incorporates hearts, as the car has appeared on Valentine's Day, and Alfa's Quadrifoglio shamrock that it uses to identify its high-performance models.

Alfa's new F1 car has not yet been named. It is due to be unveiled officially next Monday.

Two colors you say?

Well if the team retains its 2018 performance levels we won’t have to see the bright red adorning the back of the rear wing from other car’s onboard cameras.

I don't like the scheme right now, to me it clashes and the triangles at the back look clunky. I would prefer more blue. I'll probably grow to like it though.
