Very disturbing to see such a huge number of anti-Strollites in this thread openly professing their irrational hatred for one of the great drivers of our generation.

If anybody wants to read a more in depth article about the design of the new logo:

delete this crap

loving lmbo its W+K. two things here.

1. Wieden and Kennedy were the ad firm very much responsible for Nike's success in the 90s and then took on Subaru's North American advertising and you should very much read about that period of time because it should give you incredible insight into who wieden and kennedy are and why this new logo means gently caress all despite them saying it does.

2.

The logo was rear end and designed by some Portland hipster who has never seen any sort of race ever who admitted the previous one was timeless and this one will look dated two years from now. Lol if you think the new logo is good.

This is objectively excellent. The peak of good logo design, and I'm not just saying that as a child of the 90s.

It blows. You may be confusing it with this (well designed logo, by North Americans).




You know I actually get it, I like getting completely shitfaced and playing space harrier and outrun at 2am as well. But I don't think early 90s arcade cabinets is a sound place to look to when trying to design enduring timeless logos.

To be honest it reminds me of when the Premier League changed logos and everyone hated it for two months and talked about how much better the old one was and now nobody even talks about it anymore because it looks fine.

To be fair that's every change ever made ever. People are just dumb and become complacent with poo poo.

They don't have a dedicated marketing team. They have a woman who used to work at as head of Honda's marketing who happened to have Wieden and Kennedy as their ad firm. Just lol if you think there's a huge building somewhere working round the clock on F1.

Piquet confirmed recently that Murray didn't like drivers loving with his car so he intentionally made them in such a way so that the settings couldn't be changed easily. Also the the BT52 and BT53 were insanely fast.

Murray has said for a while that the BT52 was designed so you couldn't change any settings and made so the team could swap everything out quickly. He thought that year was just going to be about adding horsepower which was mostly right but the 52B really was a leap forward in performance.
