What I found back when I was doing scale modeling was 1/43 scale was the most popular worldwide and there were resin cars, hopups, and decals you couldn't dream of getting in the larger 1/24-1/25 scales. There are even crazy kits out there to get markings from _specific_ races!!
Ya gotta be a little resourceful and be willing to order overseas as it seemed a lot of these places and cottage industries were in the UK and other parts of Europe. There are a couple cool modeling magazines from UK (names slipping mind now) and if you can get your hands on one or two just look at every little advertiser. Martini is a super common livery so it shouldn't be hard to find at all. I'll see if I can come up with anything as this is a quest that interests me as well.
OK, back after a search. This site while not having tons of decal pics, has good inventory it seems
http://www.grandprixmodels.co.uk Be prepared if you go down this rabbit hole, it get's deep!! The people who complain about the cost of a dNano have no clue how much some have spent on details and hopups for STATIC models!! But, if you want the right "look or "effect" just open your wallet and do it, it is worth it for the glory
EXAMPLE: The paint alone for my Gallardo cost more than the body and fitting kit
