New F1 logo

Post

It seems not many here are too bothered with trivial things like logos, am I right?

As expected.

Anyway, I think the proposed logo by Liberty is worse than the one we have now. In my opinion we should continue with the current one, but if they are bent on changing it for change's sake, I will propose a little tweak to their proposal.


Original Liberty proposal:

PZ tweaked version:

What are your thoughts on the logo change?

Liberty's proposal reminds me of Force India. Your proposal looks much better. How about doing one without the red piece and having a solid "1"?

No disrespect PZ, but I don't think yours is better, because the logo doesn't look as it is one element. The 1 isn't in the same style as the F. Kinda looks like two different fonts put together.

Personally I don't see an f in the logo could easily be a lower case r with a stripe going threw it

No amount of tweaking is going to make that logo better. The font is wrong. It looks like Liberty is selling some new formula of motor oil. The logo needs to evoke speed.

Second one for a big thumbs up! The Rosso Corsa red needs to have the speed straights the current one has, love the use of California Rosso in it as well.

I don't see the point of changing it when the proposed changes are so similar to the existing logo.

Same colours.
Same slant.
Same interplay between 'F' and '1'.

Not exactly pushing the boundaries of design and ingenuity. I also think it's a huge failure of design to have to spell out what you're trying to market - i.e. including the words 'Formula 1'. The best logos don't need explicit explanation, they convey their brand emblematically.

Quite frankly, ALL of the suggestions in this thread are superior to the Liberty proposal.

So that logo might've been the worst thing Liberty have done since they arrived.

:roll:

The old/current logo has been in place for 23 years. Liberty are here to shake up the sport a bit, to make it more appealing and marketable. They introduce a new logo to reflect that there has been a changing of the guard. And all anyone here has done so far is sh!t all over it, like it's really that important.

Next week you'll be complaining about something else.
