Formula 1 racing team, Red Bull revealed fan-made livery for the forthcoming US Grand Prix from a lot of 25,000 entries. This was for the second time in this season that Red Bull converted their RB19 cars into canvas for their fans. As a part of the 'Make your Mark' competition, the artwork of the paddock will get to decorate the 2023 Constructors’ Championship-winning car at the Circuit of the Americas.
The winning design by Franco Cavallone from Argentina was inspired from the Lone Star Flag of Texas. It features sweeping lines in red, white and blue along the front and rear wings of the RB19. Franco said, “I remember when I first found out about Make Your Mark, I was watching the second practice session at the Miami GP – it was the first time I’d been to a race – and I found out the Oracle Red Bull Racing livery was designed by a fan from Argentina, like me."
"I’m a freelance graphic designer and this is easily the most exciting thing I’ve ever designed! It’s like a dream that this is happening to me, seeing my design on the car will be the best day ever, I can’t wait to see it on track”, he further added.
The competition had more than 2,000 submitted liveries, which after a review by the Red Bull team before the top designs were put to vote in front of 25,000 fans. Team Principal and CEO, Christian Horner said, “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.”
