Weirdly enough I'm going to have to go with Martini, even if I'm not a fan of white.

That's like making me choose between my left or right testicle. That's not fair man.

While I do like them both, prefer the Martini livery by far. It's much more visually interesting, and dynamic than the Gulf, and I honestly think it has aged better as a result.

Martini looks better on most cars, but Gulf looks way better on some cars. Save Gulf for Mid-engined and vintage race cars, and Martini for GT3/endurance/production cars.

The JPS Lotus is far and away my favorite f1 livery ever to have come.

John Players Special on open wheel and angular cars

Martini for 99% of the cars. Makes me want to go buy some gin and vermouth.

The thing with gulf is that it is nearly always the same. The Martini livery though is semi different on every car that wears it, following the curves and angles of said car. That makes it a bit more interesting for me. Not saying I would turn down gulf livery though.
