The Racing Bulls Formula 1 team has unveiled a striking one-off livery for this weekend’s Miami Grand Prix.
Its drivers Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson will tackle the Miami sprint weekend in a bold pink and white livery on their VCARB 02, that the team says is inspired by the Red Bull Summer Edition White Peach. Hadjar and Lawson, as well as their trackside teams, will also sport magenta race suits and team kit over F1’s second sprint weekend of the season.
Red Bull’s satellite team also introduced a colourful one-off livery at the Florida event last year as it aims to connect with a younger segment of F1’s growing fanbase, having held a launch event for its 2024 car in Las Vegas. “Miami holds a special place for Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, it’s where we debuted our very first special livery as a team last year, which was a moment that set the tone for who we are: bold, creative and willing to push the boundaries,” team CEO Peter Bayer said.
“Since that debut, we’ve continued to make waves with striking liveries in Singapore and Las Vegas, each one crafted in collaboration with our partners and met with real excitement from fans. The Red Bull Summer Edition livery is a celebration of everything Miami represents, and we are honoured to give wings to this new seasonal flavour.”
Red Bull Technology CMO Olly Hughes added: “This is a first for Red Bull as the first ever can-inspired livery to launch a brand-new flavour in the US. The Red Bull Summer Edition White Peach flavour is made for summer, so where better to bring this to life than Miami. Since last year’s Miami launch, VCARB has earnt an award-winning reputation for bold and distinctive designs that stand out on the grid and there’s no doubt this is another one to add to the list.”
Sauber unveils art car
The Sauber team has also introduced a one-off livery for Miami, sticking to the usual black and neon green colours of its title sponsor Stake, but changing up the design of its C45’s paint scheme for what it called an art car inspired by Miami’s art scene.

“This livery is more than just a new look – it’s a celebration of Miami’s creative spirit and our commitment to energising the sport for our fans,” said Stefano Battiston, the Swiss squad’s Chief Commercial Officer. “Our objective when developing this livery with Stake was to stand out, not only for our dedication on the track, but also for our boldness and creativity off track. Our team is dedicated to creating memorable moments and engaging experiences, and this Miami special is a perfect example of that.”
Like their Racing Bulls counterparts, Sauber’s Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto will also be wearing bespoke race suits designs for the weekend.
