I'll be honest with you here....I dont like the Marlboro scheme, sorry. If you want to do a fag packet look go for JPS with gold wheels or maybe something a little less obvious, Camel might look good! Just did a google search and found this: http://www.google.co...iw=1366&bih=667

It's not too late, put the green back on, looked fabulous! of course, IMHO

Love both tbh. Green looks amazing, and I like the red and white. (including the wheels). Not sure on the brand name on the side of the car though, but not sure what you'd write instead.

I like the idea of doing a new and different wrap on the car, but i also don't like the cigarette branding anything that wasn't related to those horrible fags! what other designs have you considered?

Camel, Benson & Hedges, Silk Cut and John Player Special

It has been suggested that instead of "marlboro" I have bar codes

Reminds me of the day glow orange and white of ayrton senna. I dont mind the marlboro writing. Who smokes nowadays anyways. So 90's

Saw the car at Goodwood last year - lovely and looks so simple compared to modern F1 cars.


I wonder if you would be allowed on track with tobacco advertising?

Coincides with the release of the Senna film

Still a bit undecided on whether to have red or dayglo orange a la Yamaha 1980's

Thats worth considering, a few emails to some TDO's I think

Was one of those silly thoughts then realised that it might actually be true and some stupid health and safety rule because children might be present or other such rubbish.

Just sent 5 emails to some TDO's so I'll see what they say

I liked the green, interesting idea on the new design, but as I completely despise cigarettes/cigars/pipes/spliffs..... etc, I'd have to disagree with it unfortunately!

From what I read once the colours on many race cars are very different to how they appear on TV due to the way the cameras are set up. Sennas car was very bright orange and white but appeared more red and white on TV, the JPS scheme was more beige than gold. The current McLarens are more orange and silver despite Vodafone corporate colours being bright red. And red VX's always look pink in photos.

Oh, and if you do go with Marlboro make sure you do spell it properly

There's other things to consider on the decals such as something else but in the marlboro font, favourite though if not "marlboro" is the bar code as on the Honda above. Not been done 'til 27/28th May so loads of time to decide
