Genesis Magma Racing has taken the wraps off the livery of its No. 19 Genesis GMR-001 that will compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship.

The Hypercar class entry of Mathieu Jaminet, Paul Loup Chatin and Dani Juncadella will run with a black-based livery, compared to the ‘liquid metal’ design of the No. 17 car that was revealed on Tuesday.

“While working on different solutions and options for the final livery, we landed with two strong candidates during our last test of 2025,” explained Hyundai Motor Group President and Chief Creative Officer Luc Donckerwolke.

“One black car with Liquid Metal Hangeul lettering, and one Liquid Metal car with black graphics.

“This inverted solution that was instantly gave us a difficult decision to make. We looked at the feedback online and we quickly realised that by choosing just one livery we would have disappointed a good portion of our fans.”

The South Korean manufacturer will make make its WEC debut at this month’s season-opening 6 Hours of Imola on April 19.
