liveries 06

Pretty dull aren't they? Barely any changes of paint since last year.

The biggest change is a touch of orange on the nose of Wilson's car, giving it that Woody Woodpecker '99 Williams look.

Oh, and Junqueira's car, now white with red wings.

White and red, hmmm...exciting. Also used by Justin Wilson, all three PKV's, both Dale Coyne's - all the same shade with big white noses. In reverse, also apparent on the Zwolsman Mi-Jack car.

Else it's yellow and red (a la Ranger & Bourdais).

Haven't seen a Rocketsport yet, yellow again?

Forsythe's are blue and white again of course, so they'll at least stand out.

I will always give credit to Bourdais on how he can drive a car with McDonald's all over it.

It's getting worse this livery thing, it's the same in F1.

Red this, white that.....just knock it off!

The red and white is getting a little old.

What the deal with Bruno's car? No major sponser? No Pacificare? All I've seen is "Hole in the Wall Gang."

The champcarfan.com line up shows Bruno's car with Coca-Cola sponsorship. Don't know whether this is true or not though.

Considering the source, I think that's more Zero's wishful thinking than anything based on fact.

To be honest it looks pretty bland and unorginal. Some unholy cross between a Team Australia and Conquest car.

It's a shame but most of the liveries are looking boring... uninspired stuff...and I can't believe that some of the guys who "designed" these cars are calling themselves designer...

All the liveries look bland or old or both.
Katherine Legge has the best helmet livery, followed by Justin Wilson and Nelson Philippe.

They all look like circa 1990 Formula One cars...very retro I guess.

Very dull. Considering the beauty seen in some Champcar liveries over the last 10 years, the Hollywood PacWests/MoNunns, the first PKV car, The Walker Racing schemes that weren't the same colour as a packet of Quavers.

Never mind.

Way too many red and white cars. We need improvement on this...

Best helmet is Oriol's, of course!

Well I always liked Jourdain's liverys and most of the teams that are now in the IRL had quite striking liverys.. The teams definately need to be more creative. No changes to the Forsythe car it seems, most are just bland with sponsers but the HVM cars with the Eurosport parts looked nice last year atleast. It would be nice if we had some flashy cars but I honestly don't think Wilson's car is that bad...
