Ok, new Visa cashapp whatever it is actually doesn't look half bad. They've kinda gone back to late era Toro Rosso colours

nice

Nice, I always liked these blue Toro Rosso liveries.
Still a large amount of black, but less than the other cars.

Immediately recognizable, so that's nice. But the name on the other hand....

Good livery, ridiculous name. But good livery.

Its not black, so automatic win

looks like those midfield liveries from the 90's, immediately approved

Lets hope it returns to the midfield this season

It does give me vibes of the 1998/1999 Minardi. Fitting...

1995 more like. But glad it is not just me.

This Toro Rosso livery looks like a generic Indy livery driven by Scott Dixon

Agree the new Alpha Tauri is very good by today's standards of corporate shades, but Y'all better stop demeaning the 1990s. That glorious era was made of more vibrant colors:



Compare it to this diarrhea below. It's also incidentally more difficult to find an image of a 2023 start under mid-day sun. They all look like gloom and doom, because every race starts at 16:00 or 17:00 or at night nowadays.



Edit: I honestly can't find a noon-sun start in 2023 on Google image search. East races (eg. Baku) are late with low sun that reflects off the cars, and European sunniest races like Barcelona and Monza also give off the same vibe:



Or maybe it's the filters, we lost all hope as species and we don't like the excitement and hope of color anymore.

1999 was the best year for liveries!

The big difference is that in 1992 even the bottom half of the car is colored (or at least visible), when in 2023 they're all black. Even Ferrari is black behind the nosecone. Maybe they should put a strip of LEDs there to light up that shadow area.

Aston as expected, green-and-black (and a swoosh of yellow, obvs): https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/asto ... /10574795/

in the mid 90's some film manufacturers were experiencing with high saturation, it is funny as hell to see old pics with that much color

but I get the point of all, back in the day cars were sponsored by fag packs and national enterprises (or shady business), now is mostly owned by boring companies and don't have the sponsors having a say on the livery

Again, why is this part left black? It will look so bad from a front view.

meanwhile Toto and his italian acquaintance are discussing about a leveraged buyout
