Mercedes Unveils Special Petronas Livery for Singapore Grand Prix
Mercedes has unveiled a visually striking special livery for the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix, celebrating a significant milestone for its long-standing partner, Petronas. The introduction of this livery marks Petronas’ 50th anniversary, highlighting the deep-rooted relationship between the global energy behemoth and the renowned racing team.
A Tribute to Enduring Partnership
The new livery replaces the traditional black and silver design utilized throughout the current season. Instead, it boasts a predominantly green color scheme, a nod to Petronas’ corporate identity. Mercedes' Chief Toto Wolff commented on the monumental occasion, emphasizing the importance of the collaboration: "Our partnership with Petronas is our longest standing and still going strong. For any company to reach its 50th anniversary is an incredible milestone. To do so having grown to one of the foremost global energy companies is incredibly impressive. We look forward to continuing our relationship for many more years to come, and with exciting challenges ahead such as the introduction of sustainable fuels in 2026. This livery is therefore not only a celebration of their 50th anniversary, but a reflection of Petronas' importance in our team's story and honours our journey together."
Excitement for the Fans
The special livery is set to make its debut under the iconic night lights of the Singapore Grand Prix, promising a visual spectacle for fans. The race, known for its challenging street circuit at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, is an eagerly anticipated event on the Formula 1 calendar. Lewis Hamilton, a key driver for Mercedes, shared his enthusiasm: "The livery looks incredible. I can't wait to see it on the car in the garage tomorrow and then to get behind-the-wheel on Friday. I am sure the fans will love seeing it up close and it will shine brightly under the lights of Singapore."
Impressive Visual and Performance Impact
Mercedes aims to not only make a visual impact but also deliver a stellar performance at the Singapore Grand Prix.
