15 of the Most Legendary Liveries in Motorsport History
Some color combinations have left an indelible mark in motorsport history. Today car wrapping offers us the opportunity to make our sports car a tribute to these iconic liveries.
For us car guys, the color of a car mainly has an aesthetic value, but have you ever wondered why laymen identify every red sports car like a Ferrari? The brand itself has been identified as such and therefore, in the mind of these people far from the world of engines, a red sports car will always be a Ferrari, no matter the model. The same goes for racing liveries, introduced in competitions to allow teams to be supported in the huge expenses they would have faced during the championship. And thanks to the main colors of the advertisers, combinations of colors and shapes were born that thanks, thus starting to represent the image of a stable, in many cases becoming more recognizable for their color than for the name of the team itself.
Today, thanks to car wrapping we have the opportunity to preserve the original paint of our everyday car, but since there is no limit to the imagination and with the necessary precautions relating to the display of certain brands, why can’t we make our sports car even more special, maybe showing off the colors of that racing car that has been the protagonist of our childhood dreams?
It has not been easy at all, but we chose 15 of the liveries that we believe have most influenced the tastes of fans, trying not to draw too much from the F1 of the golden years.
