Not a bad livery, not convinced about the Brilliant White, but maybe it will grow on me
Is the reduction in physical size of the Shell logos of any particular significance? Its interesting to see the Caltex logos were smaller on the SBR car, but if anything the Ozemail ones were bigger on the BJR car. |

Dont understand the DJR branding strategy on the Konica car...
Not one Shell logo in sight... considering Shell paid to build the car in the first place, even a courtesy may have been appropriate? |

I'm going to come straight out and say that I think that it looks very clean and sharp and will definitely stand out in the pack.
It is a big improvement over the look from the last few years. Thumbs up here. |

The Shell logo's are bigger in fact, look at the front, the yellow is actually the shell logo, so I would say the shell presents is bigger than last year.

The size of the lettering on the Shell name on the bonnet is smaller than in 2002, regardless of the big Shell shell on there, reminiscent of the SBR Caltex car.
Might be an optical illusion becauseof the colour of the background but the Helix names up the side also seem smaller than in 2002... |

Much better! - I notice there's no exhaust pipes on the right hand side of the BA

I'm surprised; I didn't think I would like their new scheme, but I really do! The Helix logos do look smaller, and they look too small considering all the white space around them, and all that white space below the front side window doesn't look all that flash - but I like the new scheme

Ooh Yeah! I love it! I havn't liked DJR's livery since the blue/yellow of 97/98ish, but this look awesome, and especially on the BA. I guess the White/Red goes since Shell's service stations are getting rebuit like that now.
Is that using the final aero kit? that rear wing still looks pretty wide. |

Doesn't look too bad. I wouldn't say it is the best though, i always liked the red on the Sierra's.
DJR branding on the Konica car - Might be because they don't have a sponser (as far as i can tell) |

The Konica car has Biante sponsorship across the front spoiler and on the mirrors, Glindemman Signs across the winshield, but that's all I can see. The rest are DJR logos.

I would think there will be Shell Stickers on it by time it races. Ricciardellos Alfa Sports Sedan wore them and Basil is tied up with Shell so that's what i expect.

I too liked the '92 livery on the Sierra, but this is now my fave DJR look.
It was getting a bit stale and this has rejuvenated the look. Now, for the results sheets. |

I was down in Brissie Monday with a mate to pick up my new monitor, but there was a delay so we thought we'd go check out DJR while we were down there. Got there just after 1 to find a sign saying they would be closed from 1 in prep for the launch. Bugger!
