Controversial, probably.
IMO grey race cars always look too dull, to me they're the worst kind of livery, because they aren't even good enough to be terrible. They're just that: plain, grey, lifeless. That's why I hate Merc's livery, and even a car like the sauber C9, which is a beast, but ruined by that Mercedes boring grey.

Edit: Grey or Silver, doesn't matter.

Speaking about today's grid:

The least I can say is that the car looks like a toy car.

And on the subject of grey/silver cars:
Image

Can someone say they look at this livery and find it in any way exciting? They've managed to take a silver livery, which is already awful, and combine it with that blue-ish green to achieve a new level of boring. I'd rather see a livery which tries to be good and ends up being terrible than something that doesn't try to be anything at all.

Agree, but the 2009 car was worse

maybe not the ugliest, but clearly missing the perfect sponsor for that choice of livery

Oh dear god the superfund one where it looks like Paul Stoddart loaded his sponsor stickers into a scattergun to decide on placement

That was Murray Walker's description of the Windfield Williams' ironically.

Always hated the first Force India livery

and this one too, especially considering their prior liveries.

And here's a curious one I found, a F2001 with WW2 spitfire livery driven by Michael Schumacher wearing a green version of his helmet. Unfortunately, it's photoshopped though.

This is a bit embarasing :oops: . I'll have to ask to refrain from voting. At this moment, I cannot disable voting. This is bug and will be fixed as soon as possible.

Also, mind that everybody has an opinion. Downvoting just because has a different opinion is not tolerated.

PM a mod/report your post. I just did the same because someone who should know better treated as if it were a like/dislike button.

Already took care of it. Once I am able to disable voting, the upvotes will be removed as well. It is certainly not the intend to use the voting system as a like/dislike. Certainly not for a subjective topic like ugly liveries. Mind, I find this a very nice topic. It speaks for itself respect has to be shown for your fellow member's opinion, even if it does not stroke with your own.
