I like such music and imagery, reminds me of old sci-fi movies, such as "Tron" :)Quote:

On the other hand, WRC and WRC2 liveries were different in last years. This one looks like tweeked Rally 1 livery from last year, so maybe it shows nothing.Quote:

Suit looks very nice and Red Bull!

Quite an as5hole post/move from pirelli..
Yeah that's quite weird isn't it? I would attribute it to incompetence first rather than jump to intentional malice. Probably some PR person jumped the gun.
Anyway given the teaser from MSport and the big Red Bull branding on Martin I would assume the colors will be similar to last year but maybe with a different layout. Red bull has had some shade of purple for several years on it's F1 cars and purple is also a typical color for the synthwave retro style like their teaser was. My prediction is it will not be all that different from last year but should look good. Now I keep wondering what this forum would be like in the 90's and 00's when Subaru kept showing up with the same thing for 10 years straight :D
Subaru's livery was simple, but really cool(even today, when blue-gold subie drives by)..
Another thing is, neither Tanak nor Loubet was a RB guy.. have things changed now?
I’m actually surprised that M-sport hasn’t revealed the livery alreadyQuote:

The Escort 1700T which didn't make it as an official car was my thought too.Quote:

Quite weird decision to do reveal in the morning instead of this evening.
Sunday is not a good day to announce anything...Quote:

Have to say I am a bit confused.
RedBull even more prominent than before.
Wasn't Tanak a Monster guy?
No Loeb (who is RedBull) on Monte and rumors MSport wants too much money. Fourmaux (RedBull) kicked to Rally2.
Weird.
I think Ott and Monster was only rumors.
Ott in his Fb page post
"RedBull �� OT
I am happy to announce that from 2023 I’m joining with the Red Bull family. Bring it on, 2023! ��
#RedBull #GivesYouWings #Partnership #MSPORTERS #Ford"
Oho, unexpeced move - OT and RB
Ok, that makes more sense.
RedBull pays (for)Tanak and there is not much money left for Loeb/Fourmaux.
AFAIK Ott has never been a Monster guy.Quote:

The extension of Red Bull’s backing will mean both Tanak and Loubet will now be inducted as official Red Bull athletes.
Makes very good sense: edgy, mind speaking, standing out, champion, a brand... perfectly matches RB. Strange though, that it happened so late in his carrier.Quote:

Not a huge change, they have swapped the purple with Estonian blue but like Sulland says, looks so beautiful and beats the others by far
Best livery by far.
Can't wait to see this beauty live in action!
“Inspired by synthwave music, and maintaining its electrified look as a nod to the hybrid era, 2023’s livery features neon bolts of vibrant pink and electric blue across a canvas of the iconic Ford blue,” read a statement from the team press release.
“The team takes the success of 2022’s stunning livery and takes it one step further, hoping to make an impact in both colour and performance in 2023.”
It's a beautiful livery indeed, but what does it have to do with nostalgia, 1984 and "the time that never was"?
Bluu Ford :)Quote:

Big thanks to Red Bull. It seems they were crucial to making the deal happen.Quote:

On the other hand, same livery, but no Red Bull on Fourmaux's car. His livery was masked by duct tape, but here is no yellow color and no RB logo on the hood.
So, they did present again Puma with rounded exhaust.
