Red Bull reveal the ‘Neon Bull’ ahead of Las Vegas GP

Red Bull has finally revealed their final fan-inspired livery design, as part of the Make Your Mark competition, which has been named the ‘Neon Bull.’

Three races were scheduled in the United States for the 2023 season and in a bid to get closer to their fanbase, the reigning world champions gave fans the opportunity to run special one-off liveries at Miami and United States Grand Prix.

The Neon Bull is the latest, and last, of the collection designed by Lindsay Palmer, from Essex in the United Kingdom, who was picked from thousands of entries. The newly designed, championship-winning machinery is sure to shine as the RB19 blasts down the iconic Las Vegas strip at night for the inaugural race weekend.

To make matters even better for the winning fan, Palmer will be trackside with the team all weekend to see her creation out on track. Palmer said:

“I was so excited to be selected as the winner for Make Your Mark Las Vegas and was completely lost for words when I won.

“When thinking about what represents Vegas, the first thing that came to mind were the casinos and the bright lights, so I knew this had to be incorporated in my design. I wanted the style to emulate the cars whizzing past the neon lights and I had to make sure playing cards were added too.

“When I visited the factory, it was amazing seeing the livery come to life and the creation process. I am so excited to go to the race, I have never been to Vegas before and the fact that I can see my car come to life under the iconic Las Vegas lights will be an incredible experience. I cannot wait to see it on track!”

The car will feature a purple base and will provide the illusion that pink and yellow neon lights are flowing through the car’s bodywork as it races through Vegas at night. It will also incorporate objects which are symbolic of Vegas such as a simplified design of the Las Vegas sign, poker cards and poker chips.

Speaking of poker, the car will also feature PokerStars ‘Poker Chip’ covers which will turn the car’s wheels black, red and white with a design that encompasses the look of a poker chip, it will also include the iconic PokerStars’ Red Spade.

As a result, PokerStars will be the first sponsor to co-brand Red Bull’s wheel covers.

Ahead of the event, Red Bull CEO and Team Principal, Christian Horner said:

“It is brilliant to be rounding off our third and final Make Your Mark competition this season here in Nevada for the inaugural Las Vegas GP.

“It is such a unique way to bring fans into the heart of the Team, giving them the opportunity to design and vote for our Las Vegas livery through our free loyalty programme, The Paddock. We have revealed a fan-designed livery at every US race this year and each design has well and truly delivered; it was quite the task picking a winner.

“Congratulations to Lindsay, who really put Vegas’ iconic stamp on the design, capturing the energy and excitement of both the city and the Team. Very much looking forward to seeing it racing around the streets of Las Vegas.

“From what I have seen on the Sim though, that long straight is an incredibly fast one, so you are going to have to keep a close eye on things as the cars fly past under the bright lights of The Strip. It is going to be a special race made even more special by celebrating with a fan-designed livery as we head into the final US race of the season.”
