Have you ever wondered what current Formula 1 liveries would look like on 1980s cars? Probably not. But you should have, as these wonderful designs show.

The ‘reverse retro’ liveries from design genius Sean Bull (who gave us these awesome classic liveries on a 2017 concept car) give us a glimpse at what a 1985 F1 car would look like with modern colour schemes.

Some of them look damn awesome, and the bright yellow Renault, blue and red Manor and bright red Ferrari are our favourites.

It’s a really clever idea and one that has spectacular results. Flipping the switch and taking fresh takes on livery design back to the past is a cool way to see how far they have come.

Ferrari & Force India’s suit the cars best. But where is the Smirnoff branding?

I believe smirnoff no longer sponsors them instead it’s hype . As you can see on this years car
