Brawn's Future Colour Scheme

Just get rid of the yellow wheels covers

IMO (for what it is worth) I think the wheel covers are the coolest part of Brawn's livery!

Here in the US there are a fair number of hondas running around with similar hubcaps, purchased at pep boys and made by APC.

But seriously, aren't there some FIA rules about livery changes?

I think they are allowed but they need all the teams and the FIA to agree. Midland changed its livery mid season when Spyker took over

I think they are also allowed to change colours as long as the overall design remains the same, I remember BAR using a blue/yellow over white 555 livery instead of the red/black over white lucky strike livery in china

Very funny : Any resemblance

Spot on, actually

I guess my point was that Brawn probably has one shot to change the livery, so they are probably going to look the same until Branson inks a season long contract (or not).

If Brawn do well in Malaysia, then i think SRB will pen a season deal, if so, then a change in Livery i think would come at the earliest in Spain

maybe something along these lines..

Thinking about Virgin as a global brand any sponsorship would probably be in the form of Virgin Atlantic, so its the most globally known arm of the company, whilst other arms such as Media will still benefit from their close association.

Virgin Media/Trains/Any thing else would be silly as they would only be relevant in a few, if not one market, the UK and people in Brazil wouldn't really bother about it

Something to remember - very few of the "Virgin" companies have ANYTHING to do with each other. Branson hires out the logo and name to anyone for enough £€$ these days - he's has a majority in a few, a small minority stake in more, and nothing at all bar the licensing fees from most of them.
