Behind the scenes, a heated discussion is already raging among TV channels and the media about what to call the clear copy of Verstappen’s world champion car. Following the American model, the FIA and the FOM must finally ensure clear team names in the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB.
Commitment causes problems
The Hinwil team from StakeF1 (no longer on the Sauber homepage) is already causing headaches. The fourth oldest team is threatened with a lawsuit if they advertise here with the Australian gambling provider from Curaçao (Caribbean island). There is a risk of a fine of 500,000 francs.
And now there is the dilemma with Visa Cash App RB. Who calls this team that on TV or in the media? Probably no one. The BBC bans sports advertising. The German trade magazine ‘Auto Motor und Sport’ goes back to the beginnings of the team from Faenza: Toro Rosso.
Sauber and Racing Bulls?
To avoid all the fuss, most online portals simply refer to the two cars as Sauber and Racing Bulls.
Hugo Boss initially wanted to become title sponsor of the Red Bull B team, which moved its technology department from Italy to England under the new leadership of Mekies and Bayer. Visa won the race. Now Ricciardo and Tsunoda’s cars simply say “Hugo” in large letters on the front wing.
Red Bull wants a clean slate
Next week the five best teams will present their cars. At the bottom, market leader Red Bull will reveal its secret on February 15. At the moment there are even two. Red Bull headquarters in Salzburg: “We want to have the Horner case resolved by the time of the presentation!” An independent lawyer is investigating allegations of misconduct at the factory.
