I do hope Williams do something a bit different with the Martini stripes this year.

Very cool Williams concept livery, I'm just so sad when I see so many great ideas online and when I see the final result on the actual cars....

A full 'Rocket Red' Mclaren Renault concept - Whilst I love the colour more orangey that red, I have reservations about them using it as there will be Ferrari, Alfa and McLaren all using a similar colour way...

Thoughts?

Iqos is a brand with blue accents. Kimi's new helmet features blue accent's. Are we going to see some blue on a red Ferrari?
And they call it a stall. A STALL!

They were for his 'Finnish' roots? Unless that was a thinly masked excuse to get the blue on? Kimi's helmets always seem to match his cars..

Nice job. Ferrari, mac & willi are all very nice.
Renault doesn't have any thing new & hass is too simple, it needs to be more american, a bit wild lines with some hot colors...

Why is it that so few teams use metallic paint? We see a couple of the (imo) nicer ones posted here (the above Renault, the Alfa from the previous page) have a metallic sheen but - other than the chrome McLarens (you could argue the Mercedes but not sure if it is actually metallic, rather than just a silvery shade of grey) - precious few teams actually take this route.

Is metallic paint intrinsically heavier? Or is it other considerations perhaps, like sponsor logos not ‘popping’ quite so much?

I guess another example is that the benson and hedges Jordan from 96 was gold, in line with the sponsor’s branding, but soon became yellow which is really far less identifiably B&H. Must be that the metallic elements in paint add a small amount of weight, I guess, but interested if anyone has any particular insight.

I think that the metallic paint doesn't work well on tv. Specially on night races.

Ferrari's 2018 teamwear has already been revealed, there's no IQOS sponsorship on it
