Thanks for the posts gents. I do think a car with the metallic red finish and even the bubbles on the car would look great, I’d hate to think they would just do a RED car.....
What about if they were to allow two different liveries on the cars? Be one Diet or Zero and the other be regular???

Hi Shayne.

Do you remember? Bar tried that, a different livery on both their cars for the same product and they were banned from doing it. So they retaliated by putting both liveries on both cars and put a zip up the middle of both cars...

Guess it means Lotus will try to burn Red Bull's wings next season?

Ok, I won't give up my day job for a career as a comedian.
