Red Bull US GB changes name to Honda over the weekend

Before leaving Honda Red Bull and Formula 1 as a partner, it will perform another marketing stunt during its final race in the United States. The big Honda on the back of racing cases and Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez will disappear and the ‘Acura’ will replace it, the report says. RacingNews365 I heard. The Honda logo is even smaller on Red Bull drivers’ suits and cars. A Red Bull spokesman declined to comment when asked about the website.

The Acura is Honda’s luxury vehicle division in the United States, founded 35 years ago. This is not the first time the name has appeared in Formula 1. In the late ’80s and early’ 90s, the name already appeared on the visors of McLaren drivers Ayrton Senna and Alain Prostin helmets. Time. It happened during the Canadian Grand Prix.

The Japanese-American brand was certainly very proud of this and already took advantage of that opportunity, as seen from the ads from the 90s.
