Racing Bulls has released the bespoke livery the team will run across this weekend’s Formula 1 British Grand Prix in collaboration with HUGO and artist Olaolu Slawn.
The Faenza-based squad showcased the special design at an event in London that witnessed Slawn alongside the team’s two drivers: Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson.
The artwork that adorns the VCARB 02 will also be emblazoned across the race suits that the drivers will sport throughout the upcoming race weekend at Silverstone.
Racing Bulls approach the round striving to build upon the momentum that saw Lawson drive to a career-best sixth place last weekend at the Red Bull Ring in Austria.
“Slawn’s work is unlike anything we’ve seen in Formula 1, and that’s exactly why this collaboration felt right,” Racing Bulls CEO Peter Bayer expressed.
“Partnering with HUGO and Slawn has allowed us to push creative boundaries in a way that reflects the bold identity of our team.
“Silverstone is a massive moment in the season, and we’re proud to bring something completely original to our fans.”
Slawn, a British-Nigerian artist who lives in the English capital, said: “Art meets speed, and I brought the madness. Big love to HUGO and VCARB for trusting the vision.”
