The all-new #YellowSquad Supercar Lites outfit from Sweden managed by the brothers Timmy and Kevin Hansen, has unveiled the 2020 livery for both of the Supercar Lites cars ahead of the All-Star ‘Magic Weekend’ on 2-5 July at Höljes.

The team will be fielding two Supercar Lites for the Norwegian RX2 regular Henrik Krogstad and the championship newcomer Dan Skocdopole from the Czech Republic in both of the series this season.

The livery which is inspired by Formula 1 according to the team, has been designed by motorsport designer Adrien Paviot, known for his helmet designs for the F1 stars such as Charles Leclerc, Romain Grosjean, and Pierre Gasly.

“The car looks absolutely amazing. I think Adrien has done a great job on the design and making something that stands out. In my opinion it’s the best RX2 car I’ve ever seen, even though I raced a car in the class myself! So it’s a very big compliment.” Kevin Hansen, Team Manager at #YellowSquad, said.

“It’s very aggressive, it stands out a lot with the heavy bright yellow matte finish that we have, with shiny elements on top of that. I think it’s great for the partners, they get great exposure, and on top of that, there are new matching suits, gloves and shoes from Sparco for the drivers.

“Everything looks amazing next to the car and I can’t wait to see the drivers wearing their Sparco gear and jumping into these cars, matching everything together. I’m sure we look the fastest, and we’ll also try to be the fastest on track this weekend!”

Paviot has also designed the helmets for the multiple FIA World Rally champions Sébastien Loeb and Sébastien Ogier, as well as the FIA World Rallycross Championship liveries on the Peugeot 208 for the Hansen Motorsport.

“I think the livery looks awesome! It’s the first time I’ve had a full-on livery with matching suit, shoes and everything. I’m really looking forward to racing with #YellowSquad while sporting the team colours from head to toe!” Krogstad said.

“The car design looks pretty slick, hopefully the aesthetics translate into an action packed and fast car throughout 2020. Höljes here we come!” Skocdopole said.
