The Austrian team have unveiled their special livery for the weekend in Suzuka, which honours their partnership with
Honda, as their collaboration has entered its final season.
Max Verstappen and
Yuki Tsunoda will also wear a special race suit, with the concept being based on the 1965
Honda RA272. Alongside team members,
they will also wear a white team kit throughout the weekend.
It is a throwback to
Honda's first ever Grand Prix victory in the competition, when American driver Richie Ginther won the 1965 Mexican GP.
The design of the car is white, with the number being in a red circle, resembling the Japanese flag. The classic 'H' logo is present on the nose of the car, with a modest
Honda branding on the side. There is also a special logo commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Honda's first win.
The is not the first time
Red Bull Racing have such livery on their cars. The team also had a special design for the 2021 Turkish Grand Prix, after that season's weekend in Japan has been cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The fan favourite now returns as the two are set to part ways at the end of the season.
