Ravaglia Motorsport BMW launch

Ravaglia Motorsport have had their season launch. The car unveiled is almost all-white, except for the roof. I think that this is too boring.
The car should have more colour. It should at least have a band of colour around the bottom of the car, in BMW Motorsport tradition. Maybe a red-blue-purple chequer across the bonnet?

Apart from this there is really nothing to complain about regarding the Ravaglia team. Roberto has proved that he is a great team boss.

His drivers are very fast. Jordi Gene is a former Spanish Super Touring Champion, for Audi. Fabrizio de Simone is a long-time member of the BMW touring car family. Both are title contenders, or at the least will win races.

Jordi Gene - that bloke is MEGA quick. He is faster than his brother Marc - didn't he race in Porsche Supercup or something last year? Not sure really.

Don't know enough about Fabrizio de Simone to comment sadly.

Yeah, a bit dull really (the Ravaglia car...), in fact, it looks more like a taxi or something livery wise - thankfully, it's saved by that oh-so-wonderful classical BMW shape that just looks excellent as a touring car.

They should have some more engine/interior seat graphics on the side of the car? I forget, some make had that? Was it BMW or MB?

It was Mercedes-Benz who did that, I think on the Persson CLK GT car from 1998

The mid-80s Schnitzer BMW 635csi's had the skeleton style paintwork, showing seats, engine parts, suspension etc.....

Yes, the 1980s BMW designs were miles better than the ETCC 2002 Scnitzer design.
More colour is needed on those cars as well.

So my recollection is correct, though a little too general!!! I think the Renault Lagunas also had that side interior pictures, albeit in cartoon form. It could only been when you opened the driver's side door, it was imprinted on the safety cage door?
