Designed in collaboration with celebrated Japanese calligrapher Bisen Aoyagi, the livery sees the team’s signature colours reworked into a bold white, red and silver palette. The matching team kit features “Give You Wiiings” written in expressive shodo brush calligraphy.
“Calligraphy captures motion in a single stroke, much like racing captures speed in a pivotal moment,” said calligrapher Bisen Aoyagi, who will also style the team’s garage at Suzuka and be on hand to meet fans at the Japanese Grand Prix.
“I was inspired by cherry blossoms and the culture of Japan to create a design that feels powerful, elegant and alive on the car,” she added.
Peter Bayer, CEO of Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, celebrated the “bold design” ahead of its debut. “As a team, we’re always looking for ways to connect with young fans and the cultures that shape our sport,” he said. “Unveiling this special livery and team kit in Tokyo, in front of the passionate fans at Red Bull Tokyo Drift, makes this moment even more special for our team.”
Next stop for Visa Cash App Racing Bulls is Suzuka and the Japanese Grand Prix. Before that, the Red Bull Spring Edition livery car will take to the streets of Tokyo, touring some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, including Meguro River and Tokyo Tower, with Japan’s famous cherry blossoms providing a fitting seasonal backdrop.
