RB has become the second team to present a special livery which it will use for this weekend’s Miami Grand Prix.
Red Bull’s second team has presented what it calls a “unique, colour-shifting” design in place of the blue, white and red palette it has used since it was rebranded at the start of the season.
The new look is intended to promote the team’s sponsors Visa and Cash App. The same colour scheme will appear on their F1 Academy car which is driven by Amna Al Qubaisi and run by MP.
The team have joined Ferrari in presenting a different livery for this weekend’s race. Ferrari have incorporate blue into their colour scheme to promote their new sponsor.
While the RB 01s will have a new style, the team has also confirmed it will bring a performance upgrade for their chassis this weekend as it seeks to consolidate and build on its sixth place in the standings. Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda will both have examples of their latest aerodynamics parts on their cars.
Ricciardo is still seeking his first points of the season, but was encouraged by their performance at the previous round. “The Shanghai result didn’t reflect it, but we made progress in China,” he said. “The performance of the car was strong and I’m confident that will continue.”
However he has a grid penalty for the race which was applied for overtaking Nico Hulkenberg under Safety Car conditions.
“Obviously, it’ll be a challenge this weekend given the three-place grid penalty, but we’ll be pushing for points,” he said.
“It’s no secret that I love spending time in the States, so I’m looking forward to getting on track in Miami. I’ve only raced here once so I’m excited to go back. It can be a really hot physical race.”
