A whole lot of nothing in that article. Car looks great though!

Sponsors are gonna sponsor, but I really wish it didn't have those Google Chrome hub caps.

Not a fan of Google but I think the wheel covers actually look great, especially compared to all the other boring ones.

I think they're a fine idea for sponsor integration (like the Williams Duracell battery airbox), but to my eyes at least the colors often clash with the livery in a way I don't enjoy.

What did you think of the Alfa Romeo ones? I remember them being the only other interesting ones.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sponsor integration or just liveries? I don't remember any noteworthy sponsor integrations, but Alfa Romeo did have some very nice liveries. Especially special one-off designs like for Monza or Las Vegas.

I just meant decorative usage of the wheel covers

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Ah right. I like those, they go well with the livery. No colour clash.

I honestly don't mind them too much on the regular papaya livery, but on this special livery I agree they look awful.

They don’t look good with this livery, but I love a good pun.
