F1 News: VCARB Unveils Bold 2024 Livery During Las Vegas Event
Visa Cash App RB has unveiled the livery for its 2024 contender, the VCARB 01, to social media.
Despite a launch event tying in the with Super Bowl in Las Vegas, the team posted a reveal video to social media rather than live streaming the event. The video shows a bold blue and white design with red accents. The satin blue sits on the nose, side pods, and intake, whereas, the front and rear wings stand out with red sponsors on the flat white background. The white and red combination can also be seen on the nose.
Taking a slight jab at some of the backlash other teams have been receiving for predominantly carbon fibre designs, the team wrote:
"Introducing the VCARB 01. We didn't skip out on the colour with this one."
There are still some areas with exposed carbon fibre, however, much to fans delight, this has been kept to a minimum.
This comes at an important moment for the team as they moved away from AlphaTauri at the end of the 2023 season and embark on the 2024 season as Visa Cash App RB (VCARB). Along with the re-brand, the team is also going to be more closely aligned with its sister team, Red Bull, as far as the regulations allow. With how dominant the Red Bull RB19 was in 2023, winning all but one race in the whole season, many are predicting a strong season in 2024 for VCARB drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda.
The next 2024 livery reveal is Aston Martin on Monday 12 February.
