A friend of mine does those graphics for both Red Bull and VCARB. They’re high tech, super lightweight vinyl wraps.


And he’s ex-mx and a former helmet painter.

Is he a freelance designer or does he work directly for the Red Bull F1 Team? Either way, cool gig.

He’s an independent sub-contractor, but has his own manufacturing and installation setup built within the Red Bull factory. He has a team of guys travelling worldwide as when there is a livery change, like this weekend, every car, including show cars (which may be elsewhere, on display at sponsors etc) all have to be fitted with the new graphics at the same time.

Related to country singer/rapper Shaboozey. I think he helped design the card for Visa.

Hmm...they are ending direct subscriptions to F1® TV Pro and Premium.  I'm thinking Apple got the deal.  I hope the quality stays intact and the price is reasonable.

I just watched the movie last night....meh. I was really hyped about it, but just didn't actually get to the theater. The story doesn't have a lot of weight or importance to it. Who tf makes a story about 9th place drivers in Formula 1?... just saying. Its okay for just aesthetics, but story wise not as good as I hoped.

I'm interested to see how he does. I know he's good, but seems inconsistent.

I just hope the car is competitive and we can see what he's got.

It seemed impossible a few weeks ago.  Now, it could really happen.  I just want it to come down to the last race with Verstappen, Piastri and Norris all having a shot at the title.

Hamilton broke another record and it's not a good one. 

His 19th race for Ferrari and not one podium finish. The longest stint for a Ferrari driver not to finish on the podium in Formula 1 history.
