GP4: Formula E Season 9 Neom McLaren, Envision & Nissan

Following on from the release of the template pack, I can proudly provide you with some liveries that I've created using it. These are all liveries from Season 9, the first season using the new Gen3 car. 
Frankly, spending so much time looking at this car hasn't endeared me to it, it's still super ugly. However it's nice to see various teams trying to make a nice job of it with their liveries. 

Here's 3 liveries by me. 

Nissan Formula E Team

First up we have the Nissan car driven by Norman Nato and Sacha Fenestraz. The livery itselt is quite simple, with lovely red and white with black trim. The white parts feature cherry blossoms or Sakuras.

NEOM McLaren Formula E

McLaren teamed up with NEOM for its entry, using the Nissan powertrain. McLaren have a unique livery style that is adapted to all its teams in various forms of motorsport. Simple, elegant and instantly recognisable, the matte orange and sky blue can be easily spotted in a pack, whilst looking down at the detail there's a nice circuit board imagery instead of the exposed carbon areas. Driven by Jake Hughes and Rene Rast, it wasn't the most competitive season, nor was it a disaster.

Envision Racing

Envision Formula E Season 9 by fongu

Envision Racing have been part of Formula E since the beginning of the series under the Virgin name, partnering with DS Automobiles, before joining forces with Audi. For season 9, they now use a Jaguar powertrain and have hired Sebastien Buemi, another Formula E original and former champion, to join Nick Cassidy.

As I've previously said, I don't plan on making the whole grid, but hopefully this serves as a good motivation for you to help finish the the Season 9 grid.
