Top imo, because white is a neutral color and red, orange, and yellow are all warm colors. Hardly a design classic but at least the colors have some relation.

Satin blue and bubblegum pink have zero overlap in my view. I think they could’ve benefitted from more white or black on this car to break it up. There was potential there.

The alt livery.
In a year of beautiful machinery, that pink livery is utterly hideous and an absolute embarrassment to Alpine division and tradition IMO.

Sooner it disappears the better.

The livery is... fine.

Shame I read Sean Bull's tweet hyping it calling it "VAPORWAVE" and mentioning Miami vibes. I probably wouldn't have been disappointed had I gone into this blind. But this is just so ... safe?

I was hoping for some 80's colored pink streaks to make it "so ugly it's cool". Dunno, I'm certainly no designer but added just a bit more pink to demonstrate the direction I was hoping for...

2nd. The ING is absolutely grotesque.

I’m actually convinced this is an RS18… with the new regs wings on the car….
What an underwhelming launch… even clever people have said the car is ‘conventional’….

Why everyone call it conventional?

Look at the McLaren, except the pull rod.

But to be honest I’m disappointed as well but let’s see the car at first race

Livery is not beautiful though. Last year they had the most beautiful but slow car, let’s hope for the opposite this year

Agreed… let’s hope the ‘actual’ car is better

The livery is fantastic. I esspecialy like driver suits. The car look not adventures at first, but there are some secrets to be seen yet. This is going to be a good year.

The McLaren is pretty conventional too, but both cars have some interesting things going on underneath. It's not necessarily a bad thing for either car in my opinion.

I feel Alpine's car philosophy is more inclined towards ferrari way. I am actually quite ok with reveal so far. With new engine, cooling package, ERS it is good to validate approach/performance of key systems before pushing the envelope. With cost measures in place for the year, i hope they can iterate on this version without increasing gap to comptetitors.

I have been wishing this since Alonso joined Mclaren -Honda. We all need just one last hurrah for him and debate around Great will be laid to rest.
