Easily identifiable and not completely hideous, mission accomplished. As a general critique I'd like to see less Chrome and more chrome.

I actually don’t hate this one. Major improvement over last year imo

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Agreed. Last year's I thought looked atrocious, this one is pretty good I think. Still not loving the Chrome logo stuff, but what can you do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think it was the Teal for me last year, it just clashed horribly with the orange.

The chrome wheels at least look pretty decent in motion. Definitely super ugly stationary though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, and with the the Chrome logo. It was all clashing last year, pretty much.

The chrome is part of their history from a period when their livery was all chrome. Also both Lando Norris and Oscar piastri like the chrome livery the most.

Are you talking about the chrome Vodafone livery? That one is an all-timer, I love it. I was referring to the multi-colored Google Chrome logo from one of their sponsorships, however.

Oh shit I didn't even realize. Yeah the chrome logo doesn't really fit the design... Does look kinda cool when it's moving though

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Did you mean chrome or did you mean Chrome?

The number is illegible lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I didn't even realise it was supposed to be a number at first

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

That it is

Hopefully the T-Cam will be easy enough to distinguish them

What are the FIA's rules on number legibility? Or Formula 1's?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

I remember a few years ago some team had to change theirs to be more legible
