I dunno Dare at least it stands out from the crowd, you're just denying your feminine side.  :tease:   

I'm sure we'll all love it if it's fast.  :D

Who knows the pink scheme might draw in fans we never
had before.Wonder what Perez thinks of it?

Not sure if I like it or hate it. Closer to hating it though.

ANY color is pretty on a race car if it brings enough sponsor money with it.  ;)

Besides, there have been famous pink race cars. Take this pink 1956 Ford for example. It was the first race ride for somebody who became famous as a tough guy in a black car - Dale Earnhardt, Sr.

I like it (and I'm not usually a fan of pink). Certainly better than the "poor man's McLaren" beta livery.

It's not even the colour that bothers me, it's the cartoon like BWT logo on the side pod that I find more offensive (that said, I'm all for new money in F1, so I'll just ignore it).

Sponsorship is all about getting noticed and your product or company seen and Force India have certainly achieved that so good on them.  :good:

I'm chief flag marshal for Port Nelson Motorcycle Street Races and once a competitor turned up for scrutinering with a pink helmet and said he needed a new helmet and his girlfriend offered to buy him one which she did and when he asked her "why pink" she said its so I can pick you out among all the other riders and it certainly did that.

It is all about money.

Personally, I don't much care for it, but I have no money invested in the team so my opinion is of no importance to them.
