Nicolias Prost, God help us, I'm still retching from Mathius Lauda's contribution to GP2 & A1GP. Sons of former F1 champs should have a COMPULSORY karting background from the time they are in diapers, ala Piquet/Rosberg.None of this, I've turned 18 & I think I will follow in dad's footsteps bullshit.

Sorry. I'd vote for a Koala Bear tan and the red Ayers Rock turns at sunset for A1 Team Aussie's colors, but I don't count I'm just a dumb Yank. What of the "Mystery pit stop?" It's a bit of a gimmick to me and don't see where it will create many problems for the teams.

National colours? The OZ national colours are green & gold, you've seen the Rugby, the Wallabies are kitted out in green & gold. If you mean the colours of the flag, look at team Netherlands, the flag is blue & white but the car runs in the national orange. Same deal with New Zealand, a red white & blue flag with a car in "all black" with silver tern, just like the rugby. The previous OZ livery was predominately gold with a little green. Maybe the photo above is a intrem colur scheme waiting for some sponsors. Sorry Marc you’ve lost me? National colours?
