Lindblad’s disbelief, Lawson’s determination: between present and future, the new Racing Bulls colors

Racing Bulls is also in Detroit. Even the “small” Racing Bulls, like Red Bull, are getting a new look at the Detroit event to accommodate the partnership with Ford. The changes to the VCARB 03 livery are inevitably more limited, for a team that in recent seasons – unlike what happened with the parent company – has often changed its skin and appearance, and which therefore for the first time in some time can afford to draw a line of continuity with the recent past. White is therefore still the main colour, even on the wheel covers, with Ford’s blue instead being sprinkled on to embellish the details. Continuity and innovation Between continuity and innovation there is also the Racing Bulls line-up, with Liam Lawson confirmed after his relegation from Red Bull at the beginning of last season – but then preferred to arch-enemy Yuki Tsunoda – and Helmut Marko’s latest protégé, the very young English debutant, Arvid Lindblad. A couple that should guarantee freshness, aggression, competitive malice and talent, ready to put in difficulty that Isack Hadjar who is the last of the many drivers from the Faenza team to make the big leap for the impossible challenge as Max Verstappen’s teammate. Lawson’s grit, Lindblad’s disbelief “The unveiling of the 2026 livery – explains Liam Lawson on the sidelines of the Detroit event – here in Michigan makes this moment even more special. The history of innovation of this place truly reflects what this team is building for the future. The partnership between Ford and Red Bull, the energy surrounding the team and the ambition for what lies ahead make this an incredibly exciting time to be part of the Racing Bulls. I am more motivated than ever to push forward and help turn that vision into results on the track.” Arvid Lindblad, on the other hand, is inevitably still almost in disbelief at having finally fulfilled his childhood dream of being a starting driver in Formula 1: “This moment is sincerely surreal. To be presented as an F1 driver in an event like this, in such an iconic context, is something I will never forget. The vision of the team, the new power unit and the trust that Racing Bulls has placed in me means a lot. I am ready to learn, work and give my all on the track as we start together this new chapter.”
