Mercedes have unveiled their new challenger for the 2019 season, and yes, it is still silver in colour.
Prior to the car unveiling, Mercedes had been teasing F1 fans about running a new camouflage livery. The caption for the first image release by them read, ‘Silver is so last season’.
The post sent F1 fans in a frenzy, as Mercedes were apparently going to do away with their famous silver livery.
However, later, a few reports stated that the camouflage livery could only make an appearance during testing.
Now, Mercedes have gone onto unveil their car for the 2019 season, and it is as silver as it can be.
They have opted for a lighter shade this time round, but the car looks sleek and pretty as always.
Lewis Hamilton too posted about the new livery, letting the world know how excited he was about the new season and the new machine that he would be driving around.
