GALLERY: RB reveal special denim-inspired livery for Singapore Grand Prix

RB have unveiled a special one-off livery that will feature on the VCARB 01 during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend, with the car set to sport a denim-inspired look.

Ahead of F1’s visit to the Marina Bay Street Circuit, the squad revealed images of the design created by their apparel partner HUGO, part of fashion company Hugo Boss.

The striking livery features ‘zips’ along the sidepods, as well as a denim look across the front of the car, and marks the first sartorial-themed livery since Italian fashion label and F1 team Benetton ran a “united colors” design in the 1990s.

As well as adorning the VCARB 01, the collaboration will also see the team dress their garage in the denim theme, while drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda are set to sport bespoke racing suits and HUGO outfits during the weekend.

Ricciardo said of the design: “Over the years we’ve seen fashion brands join forces with F1 teams and drivers, especially when it comes to outfits, but never have we seen any of them take this step in full immersing themselves on track too.

“We’re really raising the stakes here and paving the way, showcasing that there’s so much more that can be done for brands to explore. I think we’re definitely going to open the eyes of these fashion houses and see more fashion-inspired liveries come to life.”

Tsunoda added: “Fashion is one of my passion points, so to see our team collaborating in such a unique way, beyond our team kit and our daily HUGO outfits is super cool, especially since no one else has ever done it before.

“Doing something like this is a real reflection of our identity and creativity; at VCARB, we’re looking to speak to fans from all industries: art, music, fashion, so this is a real step towards everything we’re striving to do as a team.”

RB are not the only team set to run a new look in Singapore, with Mercedes opting for a change of colour scheme in tribute to their technical partner PETRONAS.
