Rare Motorsport Liveries

[Har1MAS1415]

Not just one-off liveries but also liveries that were only used for a few races or so or not raced at all, like test liveries for instance.

Intended to cover all forms of Motorsport.

To start off:

Jordan and Tyrrell's original 1995 race liveries.

McLaren MP4-30's original livery, ran for the first 6 races of 2015.

Jordan in pre-season testing in 1992 before the Sasol sponsorship came in.

Almost forgot that similiar to the MP4-30, Ferrari ran this livery for the first five races of 2024.

That's what I meant.

No, your RGB balance isn't off. This is Keke Rosberg driving a yellow and white Marlboro McLaren in the 1986 Portuguese GP. They used a yellow livery to advertise Marlboro lights.

McLaren's Senna helmet tribute livery from Monaco this year got me thinking of anyone else can think of a car's livery which is based on the helmet design specifically of a driver?

That's what I meant.

Huh?

Yeah, like that!

Regarding the helmet design basis, the 1995 Forti livery was also based on Senna's helmet design but doesn't really count because it did a full season.

There was also the Gulf McLaren from the 2021 Monaco GP.

Right, leaving for a bit before I get carried away again.

First race for the #19 WedsSport Celica that raced in the JGTC series. From round 3 of the 2003 season.

Also, the first race for the #17 Kosei Spirit Celica that raced in the JGTC series. From round 8 of the 2003 season.

Yes, but...I had already posted the MP4-30, so I was confused.

Guess I’ll go with the 2004 Chinese GP Anthony Davidson test livery.

Also, the 1999 liveries that didn’t make it to the grid.

Sorry.

My bad.

Can't seem to stop making a wally of myself on this forum.

Forti didn't last much longer after switching to Shannon Racing colours from the 1996 Spanish GP onwards.
