The Andretti Autosport IndyCar team has unveiled the liveries its four cars will run with during the 2016 season.
Carlos Munoz will drive the No.26 machine in 2016, with Marco Andretti piloting the No.27 car and Ryan Hunter-Reay at the wheel of the No.28 Honda.
Following the team’s merger with Bryan Herta Autosport, Andretti will also field the No.98 machine of Alexander Rossi, who will make his IndyCar debut after racing five times in F1 for Manor in 2015.
All four cars feature the colours of their own primary sponsors. Munoz will run a red and white Pint Pharma livery, while Andretti’s is yellow and blue and Hunter-Reay’s remains yellow with red accents.
Rossi’s car will sport a black and white colour scheme, but this year all four Andretti IndyCars will sport a unified colour stripe from the cockpit to the rear wing, inspired by the livery of Mario Andretti’s 1972 IndyCar.
"As we enter a historic season of Indy car racing, with the 100th Running of the Indianapolis 500, I’m proud to be able to bring this design element into our field of cars," said owner Michael Andretti.
"My father was an inspiration to me in my career, and remains an inspiration and major supporter to our industry. To carry a little history with us is something special."
The new liveries will be shown off for the first time at the two-day test at the Phoenix International Raceway.
