Good catch! Really glad to see it - somehow it escaped my notice during Perserverance.

The Gulf blue is a very pale blue, unsaturated and kinda washed out. Later imitations of the livery have often used a richer blue, more or a Carolina blue or sky blue, which they presumably think (and I agree) looks better.

A few years ago I did a blue and orange livery on a competition car and got into the specific shades. The real Gulf blue just seemed too pale.

Will be interesting to see if it has the Gulf emblem. The Group C cars didn't all have proper sponsor decals.
