The RB19 will look slightly different after the Team hands over the design tools as part of the Make Your Mark campaign.

The designer and winner of Make Your Mark Miami, Martina Andriano, said:
When I found out I’d won, I was shocked and speechless. I couldn’t believe it – it felt like a crazy dream.
