Light blue, dark blue and red have always been intrinsically associated with BMW on the motorsport scene. As far back as the 1970s, BMW racing cars tasted success on the international stage with the characteristic striped design. Today, the new BMW M8 GTE is just one of the cars that races with the traditional colours in the new design.
Interesting, this is the first time I've heard the tri-colour described in this way.
When did it become light blue, dark blue, and red?
It was always Blue, Violet, and Red previously.
