Love seeing your work. In refference to an earlier post of yours. I always wonder if the people racing these historic F1 cars get a kickback from the original sponsors and still active parent companies, e.g. Phillip Morris. For a long time it has been illegal to display tobacco and other "harmful" products' liveries in motorsports and elsewhere. It annoys me, as a former smoker, to see these full unadulterated liveries allowed in most "historic" classes covering the era's from the '60's. They don't even enforce the "Halfway house" compromise of using barcoded logos, and euphemistic alternatives, used in period, to provide a compromise when racing in territories where the brandings were blocked. Go figure. Max
Starting grid at recent historic F1 race - 1970's - 1980's era.
P.S. I'm still a big fan of motorsports. I did apply the full contemporary liveries to race car models I made, before giving up smoking (about the same time I took up garden railways, there's a coincidence ).
