You mean 18R? I'm pretty sure it's 18R because that one used to be in presentation livery until reprayed with numbers.

No, it definitely is chassis #08R. I have this information on good authority. You can confirm this by the windscreen wiper postion and rear wing as a 95 chassis. Also the three 96 fina chassis, were not completed at the time of the photoshoot. I myself, thought it was 04R, until it had been confirmed to me, By a team principle of Gulf Racing. I hope this information clarifies, the confusion over the presentation cars identity.

That it does!

I had always assumed that it was #18R since that was the third car they owned, and it was never really raced. Looking more closely at the photos, it does appear more like a '95 car than a '96. Interesting detail and a big thanks for sharing.

Re: New pics Fina presentation GTR

Now I have to ask the diferences about 95' and 96' GTR?
What are the details, where you can recognize the year model?

I've allways thought they are similar, allmoust similar but they arent.
