The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-1980 #17 Rondeau M379

Gordon Spice,Philippe Martin,and Jean-Michel Martin 1980 #17 Rondeau M379

The Rondeau M379 is another instance of a car with too tall of a driver compartment, and as a result, it looks cartoonish. The paint scheme is kind of odd. The red is a really good shade of red. The white could be brighter. The design is a bit over done, the thin red stripes are visually distracting, and serve no purpose, other than looking odd. It’s a look that’s worth a C.

I'm just a normal guy who collects race-worn driver suits, helmets, sheet metal, and other race-worn items. I will use this blog to help collectors, and race fans alike understand the various aspects of driver suits and helmets, and commentate on paint schemes.
