The surprise package amongst the plethora of patriotic liveries at Watkins Glen this week for the Sahlens Six Hours of the Glen, the closest weekend to 4th July, comes from proudly Anglo-American squad United Autosports.

The team, co-owned by the very British Richard Dean and equally very American Zak Brown, already sports the UK and US flags proudly on the dorsal fin of the #32 Ligier JS P217 Gibson, set to be campaigned here by Phil Hanson, Bruno Senna and Paul Di Resta.

But this weekend it sees a new addition, a collage of 51 images of essential ‘Britishness’ ranging from the Queen to the red double-decker London bus, from the Jaguar E Type to the McLaren F1 and from the Great British Pub to the full English breakfast.

Clearly, somebody got the memo referring to ‘patriotic liveries’ and responded appropriately!

Expect some social media fun and games from the team over the weekend.
