F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix: Four teams dress up with special race care livery

Alpine, Kick Sauber, Visa Cash App RB, and Williams Racing all adopted special looks for the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2024. There’s no single reason why Formula 1 racing teams adopt special paint jobs and graphics for individual races. Sometimes, it’s to promote a sponsored event, such as a Marvel film debut. Earlier this year, Haas and Alpine had unique livery for the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas.

Whatever the reasons for the one-time race car appearance changes, if there’s any place to dress up, it’s gotta be Vegas. We’ll have to wait for the next race in Qatar to see whether, with livery as with other things, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

Williams Racing’s livery change is the bright yellow paint job on the engine cover. Willams first made the change for the F1 Mexico City Grand Prix and Sao Paulo Grand Prix to commemorate the team’s racing heritage. The engine cover color stayed the same for Las Vegas, but it now beats the name of a new racing partner, Keeper Security.

There were two announcements related to F1 teamware this week, both related to F1 teams that aren't in the 2025 season.

Why the F1 movie screening was in Monaco
