The Vodafone logo is in the "O", and it's been spelt that Lnowdes to advertise the Vodafone " making the most of now" promotion.

I find it very hard to believe that this will be the livery they use next season.

Its basically just the Betta livery with a fireball in place of the Betta 'sparks'.

Since when has Vodafone ever used yellow?

And if I'd just layed out several million dollars for Lowndes sponsorship, I'd want my freakin company name on the car somewhere, not just the Vodafone logo inside a misspelt name.

And on top of all that, it just looks ****

Alright...everyone stop freaking out

1) This is a one off livery just for the Philip Island Round

2) As Betta Electrical are now in receivership, they're sponsorship is gone

3) The vodafone logo is in the 'o' bit of the lnowdes

4) It is spelt wrong to make the word 'now' is his name. Part of the marke the most of now capaign.

5) It's rumored that Mclaren F1 and 888 will have the same livery as they are both being sponsored by Vodafone next year

CASE CLOSED!
