Did you buy the blue OMP suit at a crazy discount price ?
Les couleurs de la France ... blue suit with a white car

Almost, it was a dilemma but I went with the Alpinestars GP Tech (Silver/grey)

You can't race with a single layer suit. You need at least 2 layers + underwear or 3 layers.

OK, but a 3-layer suit with nomex underwear is still damn hot even in cool weather!!

A good 3 layer suit is not hotter than a cheap 2 layer suit + underwear. Anyway, in any case, if it's hot outside, you'll end up wet... if you drive flat out, that is

going commando in a "good" 3 layer suit isn't really an option....
Even if you drive flat out!
