For the second time this season, Oracle Red Bull Racing turned their car into a canvas, celebrating the artwork of their ardent supporters. The Paddock, the team's free loyalty programme, saw its members being challenged to design a unique livery for the USA Grand Prix, a nod to the multiple races happening stateside this season.

The enthusiasm was palpable, with a surge of new sign-ups to The Paddock. More than 2000 distinctive liveries were proposed, and after a rigorous review process, the best designs were put up for a vote. Almost 25,000 fans cast their votes, and when the dust settled, it was Franco Cavallone's design, inspired by Texas's Lone Star Flag, that reigned supreme.

Christian Horner, Team Principal, expressed his excitement:

“It’s really exciting to see this unique, fan-led competition come to life and coincide with the growth of Formula One and our supporters in the US, and to invite our global fanbase into the Team and our garage to Make Their Mark and design the very livery we race with.

"I think Franco has done an excellent job and the car looks incredible showcasing the Texan colours and culture. It’s not every day we release a one-off livery, so it’s even more special that it’s designed by our fans. 

"Our hunger for winning continues for the remainder of the season, so hopefully this livery will be as winning as Martina’s in Miami, which saw Max and Checo finish on the top two steps of the podium. 

"We’ll be sure to show Franco some strong southern hospitality if so! I’m fascinated to see what our fans come up with for the final US race in Las Vegas.”
