^^^ Love how some teams are running special liveries for certain races. But how is that done, practically? The cars are painted, right? We hear of how a team is so proud that their paint department was able to mix up a paint that only weighs x kilos, compared to the y kilos the paint would weigh in the past. Some teams even leave large swaths of their cars unpainted, to save on weight. And while there are upgrades from race to race, most of the car is the same, in terms of bodywork. Would a team take last race's engine cowling and repaint it? Do they just paint over last weekend's livery? Isn't that more weight? Do they strip off the old paint without damaging the CF? Do they make new bodywork for every race? They have the time and money for that?
