Several F1 teams, including Williams, Racing Bulls, Sauber, and Alpine have rolled out special liveries for the 2025 Las Vegas GP. 

The eye-catching designs that will adorn eight cars are in celebration of partnerships and milestones, adding extra panache to one of the sport’s most dazzling race weekends under the bright neon lights of the ‘Entertainment Capital of the World’.

The Williams F1 team will don a special all-black livery during the 2025 Las Vegas GP weekend. This colour scheme aims to promote Rovo, an AI tool associated with their title partner, Atlassian. 

The FW47 will also sport some rainbow highlights, which the team proclaims will “bring out the bright lights of the Strip”. 

“This striking livery is the latest celebration of our work with partners Atlassian, who are helping to accelerate our tech transformation and bring Williams right back to the cutting edge,” team principal James Vowles stated following the reveal on Monday. 

“There could not be a more iconic place to unveil this than in Las Vegas, one of the most tech-forward cities in the world.”

This is the third time in four rounds the Grove-based outfit has introduced a one-off livery, having also made changes at the United States and São Paulo Grands Prix. 

Furthermore, the predominantly black livery that Williams will feature at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit is also the second Atlassian livery they have run this season.

The first livery, showcased at the US GP in Austin, not only commemorated the year of Atlassian’s founding but also the British outfit’s second-place finish in the Constructors’ Championship with a blue-and-white livery and BMW power. During the weekend, Carlos Sainz secured Williams’s first ever Sprint podium.

Meanwhile, Racing Bulls have presented a gleaming ‘holographic’ livery for the 2025 Las Vegas GP in collaboration with their title sponsor, Cash App. The design is the team’s fourth and final bespoke livery of the 2025 F1 season.

Depicted as “an iridescent finish that brings holographic patterns to life on a grand scale”, the shimmery layer adds a glamorous touch to the typically white nose, sidepod, and engine cover of the VCARB 02. 

The Faenza-based outfit has revealed that the special livery draws inspiration from the Holo Card, the latest Visa Card offering from Cash App. Besides, it also pays homage to the “bold, high-energy spirit and vibrant nightlife aesthetic of Las Vegas”. 

Moreover, the holographic design will prominently feature across the team’s garages and the race suits, boots, and gloves for Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson. A show car will also be on display at the Park MGM Hotel from 19th November.

Peter Bayer, CEO of Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, commented:

“This season has really showcased how important special liveries are to our team and to our fans.

“Each design has become a statement of creativity and expression; from the bold Magenta look in Miami, to our collaborations with Slawn and Shaboozey in Silverstone and Austin. 

“We’ve been ferociously creative in the way we bring our partners’ worlds into our own, and we’re grateful for how they’ve embraced that spirit, turning each livery into a full celebration across multiple touch points for everyone to feel connected. 

“Finishing the year with this striking Las Vegas design feels like the perfect way to cap off an incredible season of that innovation and collaboration.” 

Zack Ashley, Head of Global Brand Partnerships at Cash App, echoed Bayer’s sentiments and reiterated the company’s philosophy as it aspires to bring F1 fans closer to its own brand. 

“With Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, we’re bringing the spirit of innovation that defines Cash App to one of the biggest stages in the world. 

“We believe premium design shouldn’t come with a premium price tag. 

“The Holo Card and our partnership with VCARB bring that philosophy to life, showing how innovation and creativity can make standout experiences accessible to everyone. 

“We’re proud to blend culture, technology, and design in ways that feel fresh, inclusive, and distinctly Cash App.”

‘Final Lap’ livery nod to departing sponsor and Sauber’s F1 farewell

As Sauber gear up for the first stop of the final triple-header of the 2025 F1 season, they will commemorate the team’s association with title partner Stake with a one-off livery at this weekend’s Las Vegas GP. 

The Hinwil-based outfit’s usual black and green colour scheme will include a chequered flag motif waving across the C45s of Nico Hülkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto. The incorporation of the chequered flag undoubtedly symbolises the end of the team’s time in F1. 

After competing under various guises for more than three decades, the Sauber name will disappear from the sport as Audi complete their full takeover of the team next year. 

Simultaneously, Sauber’s current partnership with the Curaçaoan-based online casino will also come to an end since the forthcoming Audi F1 team has announced Revolut as their title sponsor from the 2026 season onwards. 

Sauber team principal Jonathan Wheatley said: 

“Las Vegas is a race that thrives on spectacle, energy and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, which is exactly what this livery represents. 

“The ‘Final Lap’ design is bold, loud and confident. It captures the spirit of a team fighting its way forward and celebrating every milestone along the way. It’s a fitting tribute to our journey with Stake and a powerful send-off as we approach the end of the season.” 

Alpine ditch yellow for more pink

After exhibiting bright yellow accents in the previous three rounds, Alpine have revealed a tweak to their F1 livery for the 2025 Las Vegas GP. As it stands, they will also use the revised livery throughout the race weekends in Qatar and Abu Dhabi. 

Alpine’s refreshed livery will sport some more pink, celebrating their partnership with BWT. The colour has been a permanent fixture on the cars and the race suits alongside the team’s traditional blue since 2022, when the Austrian manufacturing company became its title partner. 

Although there have been select rounds in the past three seasons where pink emerged as the more predominant colour, the year’s A525s will feature much less pink than previous iterations. The modifications are primarily noticeable in the sidepod area and the rear of the engine cover.
