Show cars in the Formula 1 fan zone at the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai, put where the public can get near them. It is the part of a race weekend that reaches people who will never see the inside of a garage.
A fan zone car has a harder life than a launch car. It stands outdoors for three days, in whatever the weather does, with a queue in front of it from morning to evening, and it has to look as good on Sunday afternoon as it did when the gates opened on Friday.
On the record: Formula 1 fan zone, Shanghai International Circuit
