Australian Grand Prix
From the Supercars series to F1, Australia has a rich motorsport history. One of the more colorful circuits was Warwick Farm in Sydney, a horseracing course which hosted motor racing from 1960-1974, including the Australian Grand Prix in 1963, 1967 and 1971. These tribute posters, drawn from vintage programs and descriptions, celebrate three of the…

Benetton B188
A classic 1980s livery if there ever was one! Here is the bold Benetton Formula LTD B188, raced in Formula One for 1988 and part of 1989. Powered by a naturally aspirated Ford V8, Benetton finished 3rd in the Constructors’ Championship. Super fun to draw, and certainly one of the most unique and recognizable color…

Later the 935 in Martini livery would win the 1976 World Sportscar Championship. But there’s nothing like the 917K…

Type 804 F1
The only F1 car developed and built entirely by Porsche, the Type 804 is all about function. Weighing only 461 kg, the aluminum body hugs a 8-cylinder motor that is exposed at the rear. Later improvements included a trailing arm rear suspension not shown on these renderings. Raced for only one year, Dan Gurney drove…

24 hours of Daytona
Held for the first time in 1962, the race is run on a 3.56-mile combined road course and takes place the last weekend of January. Unique among endurance racing, the banking makes Daytona stand out – literally if you’ve been outside the gates. These vintage-style posters and bumper sticker (remember those?) celebrate the unique graphical…
