First pictures: BAR 555 livery.

No zips this time; BAR's 555 liveried car has broken cover at Shanghai for the Chinese Grand Prix.

The team will run Friday driver Anthony Davidson in full blue livery for the 555 tobacco brand rather than the usual Lucky Strike colours.

The team will run Friday driver Anthony Davidson in full blue livery for the 555 tobacco brand rather than the usual Lucky Strike colours.

Race drivers Jenson Button and Takuma Sato will be wearing blue race suits all weekend, and although their cars will be in their familiar colours, the Lucky Strike branding is replaced with the 555 logo.
