Racing Bulls unveil striking red-and-white livery for Japanese Grand Prix

Racing Bulls have revealed a bold one-off livery that will run throughout the Japanese Grand Prix weekend, continuing the team’s recent tradition of special event designs.

The striking red-and-white colour scheme was unveiled during the Red Bull Tokyo Drift night-time car meet and party on Saturday, setting the stage for Suzuka with a distinctly local flavour.

A design inspired by Japan

The livery draws direct inspiration from the new Red Bull Spring Edition can and is described as a concept that “blends the energy of F1 with the elegance of traditional Japanese shodo calligraphy.”

To achieve that fusion, Racing Bulls collaborated with renowned Japanese calligrapher Bisen Aoyagi. The result is a visual identity that merges the intensity and speed of Formula 1 with the refined artistry of traditional brushwork — a combination tailored specifically for the Suzuka weekend.

Full team integration for Suzuka

The special design will feature prominently across the team’s presence at the circuit. In addition to covering the VCARB 03 cars driven by Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad, the red-and-white theme will extend to the drivers’ race suits and the wider team kit.

By carrying the aesthetic across every visual element, Racing Bulls have ensured a cohesive and unmistakable look for one of the most distinctive events on the Formula 1 calendar.
