Throwback Thursday-Carlos Reutemann-1976

Carlos Reutemann races at Monaco in his 1976 #7 Martini Brabham-Alfa Romeo BT45

Red works well for a race car, and this shade of red works well. The Martini stripes are very good as a design. The stripes look good on the sides, tail, and front. I also like the diagonally positioned number on the sides. The plain white stripes do look a bit out of business here, but it’s not as bad as some stripes that could be mentioned. It’s a good A- scheme.

I'm just a normal guy who collects race-worn driver suits, helmets, sheet metal, and other race-worn items. I will use this blog to help collectors, and race fans alike understand the various aspects of driver suits and helmets, and commentate on paint schemes. View all posts by dgf2099
