Paul Ricard, 3/1/2016 Today it was confirmed that Liverpool will use an altered livery and branding for the rest of the year ahead of the full arrival of DS Automobiles in 2016. While the rest of the Liverpool team joined the rest of the FV circus on their way to Silverstone for the British V-Prix, Arthur Lapierre and Robert Mathershaw remained at their Paul Ricard base to show off the new-look RJM-003/LFC. 'With the arrival of DS in the team from the British V-Prix onwards, we've taken the opportunity to make a few alterations to the livery, while welcoming new partners Total and Eurodatacar to the team. The rest of this season will be used as development of the 2016 Downton-DS engine, which will be of great benefit to both ourselves next year as the factory DS Automobiles team, the factory Downton team, customers Ocelot and our second customer team, who will be revealed in due course. As such, we have changed the image of the team slightly to begin the transition from Liverpool to DS as the DS Automobiles Liverpool Test Team. We hope you like it!' said Lapierre to the assembled fans. 'We're keen to get ourselves as prepared as possible for the 2016 season, and with things turning out the way they have, we've taken the chance to use the rest of this season to test ideas and components for next year, while allowing DS time to fine tune a multitude of things, right down to manufacturing processes and development schedules.' After the short press conference to the few media personnel who had stayed behind after the French V-Prix, the team took the newly liveried test car onto the Paul Ricard circuit under the darkness of the French night to be photographed.
