Keep an eye out for this eye-catching trophy that will be presented on the Formula 1 podium this weekend in Shanghai.
Formula 1 and Lenovo have collaborated once again to create a unique trophy for the Chinese Grand Prix, following their partnership at the Japanese Grand Prix last year. The trophy, designed by Lenovo in collaboration with Pininfarina, features a circular shape inspired by the Chinese pursuit of perfection and happiness. With the Year of the Dragon in China, the trophy’s design incorporates a twist representing the movement of a dragon and pulsing lights symbolizing an awakening dragon’s breath. The trophy also pays tribute to F1’s history with a resemblance to the laurel wreaths traditionally given to race winners. Lenovo and Pininfarina aimed to elevate a classic F1 tradition through meaningful design and smarter technology, reflecting local Chinese culture in the process. According to Lenovo’s executive creative director, the design process focused on merging heritage and technology to acknowledge the winners in the sport.
