Red Bull set to run special livery at Silverstone

By on

As part of its REBL CUSTMS campaign, Red Bull has showcased a special fan-designed livery that the Milton Keynes-based outfit will run at this weekend's British Grand Prix.

This weekend's Silverstone round will see Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez race with a new-liveried car that has been redesigned for the British Grand Prix as part of the team's Forever Rebl campaign.

The Austro-British outfit established a REBL CUSTMS configurator with which fans had the opportunity to create their own livery.

REBL CUSTMS enabled fans to design a livery, picking from a bespoke toolkit of patterns, colours and sticker packs. Fans were able to design livery for three races: Britain, Singapore and the United States.

The customisation patterns available in the configurator are inspired by historic Team liveries, from 20 years of racing around the globe, and offer a bespoke set of race-specific stickers to provide unique personalisation for each Grand Prix.

The above has meant an overhaul of the World Champions’ usual distinctive style and palette - Oracle Red Bull Racing will roll out racey in red at Silverstone.

The design of the RED Bull, painted in Stallion Red and imagined by Chalaj Suvanish from Thailand, takes inspiration from the Team’s 2015 one-off and iconic pre-season testing livery, The Camo Bull.

Commenting on the new livery, Red Bull team boss Christian Horner said: “Following the success of our customised fan liveries last year, we are proud to be running fan designed liveries once again on our cars for 2024.

"REBL CUSTMS has handed our most loyal supporters, a very special canvas in the RB20 and The Paddock has brought their vision to life. Our fans sit at the heart of all we do, and I am very happy they get to play such an important part in our journey.

"I watched all the entries roll in and it is incredible to see the ingenuity and creativity of The Paddock members come to life in such an expressive manner.

"In our 20th season in the sport, it is a timely tribute to years gone by and I can’t wait to see the RED Bull charge out at Silverstone this weekend," Horner concluded.

Winner of the first REBL CUSTMS round of 2024, Chalaj Suvanish said: “I wanted to enter the REBL CUSTMS competition because the chance to design a livery for my favourite Team is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

"I have been so lucky to have won and now I get to see a race in real life and I can’t quite believe it, not only do I get to attend an F1 race I get to see the car I customized on track! I

"I used red in the design of the car to represent the spirit and strength depicted in the Red Bull logo and took inspiration from the way flow-vis paints is used in aerodynamic testing.

"I love watching Oracle Red Bull Racing win and I can’t describe how it would feel to see them win in my livery," he noted.
