    Another awesome video and epic content, a pleasure to watch. Just a point to note the main sponsor was Barclay which was a cigarette brand and not Barclay Card. I suspect the omission of Barclay that you referenced, was due to anti cigarette advertising laws. IIRC, Barclay also sponsored Arrows in F1.

    That Barclay livery is nowt to do with Barclays Bank or Barclaycard gents.
    Barclay was a cigarette brand and they had F1 sponsorship deals too, including smaller decals on the side of the driver’s pod on one of the Williams cars around the same time that this Sierra would have been competing. 👍🏻

    The reason for the red originally being orange (almost fluorescent) was that the TV cameras of the time had problems with red. If you had normal red it looked very dark, almost brown. So to have the red looking red on television you used near fluorescent orange. The first ones that I think did this was Marlboro on McLaren F1 cars. They also did it on Marlboro Yamaha GP bikes. So it was the right thing to do if you wanted your red to look red on TV :)

    Regarding the regulations: The Sierra was the only one running a turbo. In the FIA the turbo was worth 1,4 and then 1,7 times the engine capacity of an NA car. Either the DTM needed to up the capacity of the BMW and the Mercedes-Benz, or restrict the Cosworth. Mercedes and BMW where basically paying for the whole series, so it was a no brainier. In the UK it was a bit different as the Cosworth - all though Ford Europe being German - was of course an English product. English products winning in the UK was quite OK :)

    I always liked the white cars best. Whit just makes these things look so good, and all the rs500 special bits look so much more special on the white ones.
    The texaco livery looks good but you can barely tell its not a base model sierra as the black hides all the special stuff unless its got the sun on it and you're standing close to it.
    Plus I've always liket white cars anyway. White for an m3, white for any cossie, white for mk1 and 2 escorts, they all look good in white. Even if they're mucky.

    restriction for tha car must have had something to do with the reglement .... audi V8s also got weight added due to the 4 WD or something ...adding weights was common pratice in DTM ... restrictor on the engine is new to me though .. just know that from NASCAR.... adding ´weights is also used alot in go kart racing ... the others will outperform you ruthlessly wehn like 10 kilos or more lighter
