“The livery that we have now is actually quite similar to that Miami livery. And then in the middle of that we introduced the [livery] to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.”
Lowdon went on to explain that their decision to evolve the livery design of the car also showed how the team were looking to push the boundaries.
“As a team if you look at, not just livery changes but if you look at upgrades, I think we’re pretty high up there on the count of upgrades we brought to the car,” he added.
“Again, I think it’s just a reflection of the way we’ve tried to approach the entry into Formula 1. It’s never been about just getting here, it’s always been about trying to get here as a team and do what all the other teams do, which is push the boundaries.
“We’re not just sitting back – that’s upgrading the car or experimenting with the livery. I have to say the fan reaction has been really positive as well.”
