The Circuit of the Americas, known for its long straights, elevation changes and overtaking zones, ensures there will be no shortage of action across three days of racing.

McLaren

McLaren has revealed a new “iridescent” livery for the United States and Mexico City Grands Prix, created in partnership with Google to promote its AI platform, Gemini.

The colour-shifting design showcases the evolution of their partnership since 2022, with chrome-inspired accents reflecting adaptability and innovation.

Aston Martin

Aston Martin has revealed its first special livery since rebranding from Racing Point, honouring title sponsor Aramco. According to Aston Martin, the livery  blends the team’s classic green with Aramco-inspired detailing.

The reveal aligns with Aramco’s STEM Challenge 2025, offering students a chance to work at Aston Martin’s Silverstone campus, symbolising their joint focus on innovation and education.

Williams

Williams has revived its 2002 HP-backed FW24 look, a nostalgic blue-and-white design recalling its BMW-powered success with Juan Pablo Montoya and Ralf Schumacher. That season brought seven poles and a victory, marking one of the team’s strongest modern eras.

The throwback celebrates Williams’ heritage and aims to connect past achievements with renewed ambition for the future.

Racing Bulls

Racing Bulls have introduced a tortoise shell livery for the American rounds, inspired by sponsor Cash App’s tortoise prepaid Visa card. Designed with artist Shaboozey, it blends art and endurance themes across earthy tones.

The look symbolises resilience and creativity, while reflecting the team’s growing identity as Formula 1’s bold underdog.

Haas

Haas has brought American pride to its home race with a patriotic livery featuring subtle star graphics and the national flag on the nosecone. The red, white, and blue colour scheme connects the team to its heritage at the Circuit of the Americas.

It’s a simple yet powerful showcase of Haas’s position as Formula 1’s only American team.

Alpine

Alpine has updated its car to highlight Argentine driver Franco Colapinto and sponsor Mercado Libre. The design integrates the brand’s bright yellow with Alpine’s blue and pink base for a bold contrast.

This regional collaboration boosts Colapinto’s profile while expanding Alpine’s presence across Latin America during the Americas leg of the championship.
