WRC liveries to be revealed at Autosport International

Citroen and Hyundai are expected to reveal all-new liveries for next year’s World Rally Championship at the season launch at Autosport International.

A third new colour scheme will also be unveiled by British team M-sport, if the Cumbrian firm commits to the series ( see separate story).

Defending manufacturer champion Toyota Gazoo Racing is expected to run a livery similar to this year, but ‘Super Saturday’ January 12 will be the first time to meet the Japanese firm’s new British crew Kris Meeke and Seb Marshall.

Events director Kate Woodley said: “The livery unveil is such an exciting part of the season and to have all the World Rally Championship teams showing their colours for the first time at Autosport International is amazing for us. But, even more importantly, it’s amazing for the fans to have the chance to share in this moment.”

Fans attending ASI on Thursday and Friday will have the opportunity to look at all four factory cars in their 2018 liveries.

Tickets for the show are available from autosportinternational.com.
