Leaked Photos of Verstappen Appear to Confirm Red Bull Million-Euro Deal

It emerged several months ago that Red Bull would welcome German brand Adidas as its new clothing sponsor. According to the newspaper Bild, the two parties would sign a deal for at least three years. The agreement would earn Red Bull 27 million euros per season.

Adidas has reportedly already shown Verstappen’s team designs for their first joint collection. These feature not only Adidas’s signature three stripes, but also break with Red Bull’s previously more classic dark-blue look. Blue will remain the Austrian team’s secondary color, but Adidas reportedly wants to give Red Bull a “fresh new look with new accents.”

Photos that appear to show a shoot with Verstappen wearing Red Bull’s new gear are now circulating on social media. The Adidas logo is clearly visible. All in all, it seems only a matter of time before Red Bull officially announces its partnership with the German brand.

Notably, Red Bull’s biggest rival also has Adidas as its clothing sponsor. Mercedes has its own collection with the German brand. German team Audi is also outfitted by Adidas. Red Bull Racing will therefore be the third team, moving on from Castore, currently the Austrian team’s clothing sponsor.
