F1 2018: 5 things debuting in F1 this season 

#Logo

Out goes the classical logo, in comes the new age one

To change a beloved, iconic logo that used the negative space beautifully is a statement of intent from new owners Liberty Media. Despite criticism from the drivers, the logo stays.

It is a line in the sand moment; of the beginning of a new era, under a brand new logo.The official reason given is that the old design was not useful for modern digital platforms or F1 merchandise. It is not a popular design and may take some time to get used to.
