Dutch car firm Spyker, which bought the Midland F1 team from Alex Shnaider 10 days ago, has wasted little time in rebranding its new outfit.
The Toyota-powered M16 arrived at the Silverstone test on Tuesday sporting a striking new orange livery with silver flashes, bearing allegiance to HollandÂ’s traditional racing colours.
The revised paint scheme draws inspiration from the Spyker Squadron GT2 sportscar that competed in this yearÂ’s Le Mans 24-hour race.
Young Spanish GP2 driver Adrian Valles had his first F1 outing at the wheel of the repainted M16.
