I didnt notice this at the Spyker launch but their new cars livery looks a awful lot like the new Ferrari and especially from a distance i think the commentators will have a hard time telling them apart.

“We keep on working, we do our thing,” Vettel shouts over the team radio, “We are who we are!”

"Vettel is a champion. That’s not referring to his achievements, but rather to his approach to everything he does. He wins. All the time. His preparation is meticulous, his attention to detail reminiscent of Michael Schumacher at his peak, and his performance on the track is almost always flawless. Vettel is capable only of domination. He knows no other way... Vettel is not in Formula One to be liked. He is there to win. And in the words of Ayrton Senna, perhaps the greatest of all Formula One drivers, “Nice men don’t win.”"

I know its orange but from a distance that orange would look very similar to Ferrari's red.

He was referring to Black Sabbath.

I remember Luca De Montezemolo saying they had lightened the newer Ferraris from the dark red of old to the new almost orange because the darker red showed up too dark on TV.  Hopefully there'll be a difference on the television, but the wings do set it apart.

yeah the wingsseperate them apart. but they look quite similar.

and about the one in the front arguement, when spykar's are getting lapped(which they get quite often) at that point it may be a bit hard to distinguish.

The current car will look red on TV (unless you're drib, then it'll look dark gray). Orange needs to be a light shade, like Arrows or even Albers' helmet. If you go darker, the RGB of the TV will shift the orange to Red and, bingo, four Ferraris. A good gauge would be your monitor...it's the same RGB as a TV. If you look at the shot here with Albers driving....his helmet is orange and the car is red. That's how it will look on TV.
