Benetton
Bought Toleman in 1985. Michael Schumacher's first two titles came here; the team's 1994 season was dogged by technical-compliance disputes.
Rosso corsaItaly/UK's international racing colour, under the convention that painted a car for the country that entered it until sponsor liveries took over around 1968. Not this team's own livery.

Photographs
From Wikimedia Commons, each shown with the photographer and licence its terms require.
A photograph marked unchecked has a file name that does not name the car it is shown for. Most are still the right car, filed under the driver rather than the machine — but nobody has confirmed these one by one.
