Racing Bulls revealed its 2026 Formula 1 livery alongside its sister team, Red Bull, during an event in Detroit, Michigan, on 15 January. While some fans have commented on the fact that the design hasn't seen a big change from 2025, there is one feature receiving a lot of praise from fans of the championship.
The 2025 design was easily one of the fan-favourites from last season, so it's not a huge shock that the team opted for a similar white design with blue accents sweeping over the contours of the chassis. But the feature receiving the most praise is the white wheel covers.
"Sweet baby Jesus, white wheel covers are back, and I am 100% here for it," one fan wrote on Reddit, while another responded: "Those better stay, goddamn it."
"The white rims are just... insane," read one comment, and another added: "LFG white rims babbyyy!!"
"Those white wheels are amazing. I love it!" wrote one fan.
While the wheel covers received plenty of praise, some argued that the overall design was a step down from last year. "Ok after seeing a better photo, it’s not that bad but still a downgrade from last year's. Bull gradient should’ve been carried over and the halo should’ve been white," someone commented.
Last year's design was clearly a tough one to beat for some fans. "If last year's livery was a 10/10, this is a 9/10. Still good, but not quite as sexy. The blue Ford accents are an interesting touch though," one fan wrote, while another added: "Oh, bit of a downgrade compared to last season, actually massively downgraded. That halo does not fit at all, why is it not blue or white?"
"Great livery, but I'm gonna miss the 2025 one. Genuinely among the greatest of all time," commented someone else.
Driving for Racing Bulls in 2026 will be Liam Lawson, who finished 14th in the drivers' standings in 2025, and rookie driver Arvid Lindblad.
