Racing Bulls has revealed the special livery it will use for next weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka.
Red Bull’s second Formula 1 team will run in a cherry-coloured livery to promote a new flavour produced by the energy drink manufacturer.
The team held an event in Tokyo to promote the design including drivers Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad, plus reserve driver Yuki Tsunoda and junior racer Ayumu Iwasa.
The livery was designed by Bisen Aoyagi, a Japanese artist who specialises in live calligraphy performances. She will create special artwork for the team during next weekend’s event.
Two teams ran special liveries at last year’s Japanese Grand Prix. Red Bull used a Japanese design to pay tribute to Honda, in its final appearance at Suzuka using their power units. Haas, which has a technical partnership with Japanese carmaker Toyota, also used a special livery at Suzuka.
