I don't know I like it, it actually reminds me of a Porsche

So, it's a livery that only makes sense when viewed from a specific angle. Great.

It actually sounds rather smooth and refined in that video.
I hope it isn't......

Possibly? Although I think they've used the wrong livery on posters in an effort to release them asap in the past, can't quite recall. But I heard rumors of it being red this year, I think, can't recall where I heard that either... Don't listen to me.

Yeah, they used the TS030 prototype once for example.
Looks like it.
EDIT:
You guys are right, didn't notice.

Well the video is pretty much all CGI, so I wouldn't base anything from that - even sounds.
My thoughts on the 919 livery? Well it's pretty dull if you ask me - they could have done so much better than to create a livery that just doesn't work from any angle. TV cameras aren't positioned that high, nor are media photographers. The only place you can really view it from the right height is the grandstand above the pits at Le Mans...which means the text is the wrong way up. Not so intelligent if you ask me...
As for the poster...it's much better than previous efforts but it's still not a patch on anything they produced before the 80s. They need to just simplify stuff, I like to think the posters we created over at l'endurance were better than this but maybe I'm wrong. Also, the children in the top right hand corner are just creepy, no-one wants that on their bedroom wall...

No it's the right way round as it reads from left to right from the front, if it was the wrong way round it would be left to right from the rear.

I was meaning the text is the wrong way round for only place which spectators can actually see the top of it properly i.e. the Le Mans top of the pits grandstand. From there you look down on the cars travelling from left to right. So flip this image horizontally and this is what you'll see from the roof top.

But there isn't a grandstand on the top of the pits thats aoc hospitality(only £1075 for the weekend!). The grandstands are on the left hand side of the pit straight.I was meaning the text is the wrong way round for only place which spectators can actually see the top of it properly i.e. the Le Mans top of the pits grandstand.

Unless it's changed for 2014 then there's definitely a grandstand on top of the pits because I've been in it. You can see it pretty clearly on the right hand side of this image and here's a photograph from actually being in it on the practice days.
And yes, it does face the other grandstands which I suppose is something. Still doesn't make it a vastly interesting livery in my opinion really, needs a burst of colour or something.

It looks too frumpy, like it needs more refinement. No doubt that the design will gather more downforce than Earth can produce gravity, but is it enough to dethrone Audi?
