    F1 car livery choices going forward...

    Right so as we know the current cars have had to add 3 letter abbreviations or a number to the car somewhere.

    Now who's to say in a few seasons time, once Liberty Media really get their heels into the sport, that the cars will start to resemble more NASCAR livery? As in I'm talking HUGE numbers on the side all in fancy font and colour? I feel like it could happen... thoughts anyone?
