I quite liked Team 18s effort but then Erebus appeared and stole the win in the final corner. Wow that looks good

Expensive yes, but I looked at tickets for the British Grand Prix next year as I will be in London with family, and those prices are eye watering.

Interesting observation.
They had far more success in the past, so it's an understandable path to draw inspiration from. Another question might be if they changed makes, and were winning in that new incarnation, would they even consider acknowledging past liveries? |

It’s retro round, what else do you expect a team that was the Holden Racing Team to use as a retro livery if not an HRT one? Genuinely curious or are you just trying to stir things up out of nothing?

Why is the #18 crooked?
I think the car overall looks cool, but the alignment and placement of the branding seems like a rush job. |

Irwin Tools was founded in 1885, as it turns out.

Keep saying it but I love seeing the numbers on doors.
Will lol if the 'OzEmail' 21 car ends up on its roof over the weekend...that's taking the tribute too far. |

I know it's italicised.
It's crooked in relation to everything else; other branding, style lines in the bodywork, etc. |

Remember a few years ago when Mostert in the Greens Tuf retro car at Bathurst, didn't put it in the trees at Forest's Elbow, but in the wall at Reid Park in the same place that Dick did in '93. I lol'ed that day

Impressive lot of retro schemes this year. The Channel 7 & the cat in the hat stand out but kudos to Erebus, and Penrite.
None of the others can match the JPS scheme when Penrite are happy to have their name styled like the original logo again. |

To be fully authentic it should have sponsorship on the floor underneath right?
