Audi’s F1 title sponsor has criticised a rival team’s livery design.
The marketing chief of Audi’s new F1 sponsor criticized Ferrari’s livery design from the previous season, particularly questioning the incorporation of HP branding on the SF-25 car, stating it did not align well with the iconic red color.
In contrast, he praised other partnerships like Mastercard and McLaren, as well as Google Chrome, for their seamless integration into the car’s design, offering a positive branding impact.
The marketing officer highlighted the natural alignment between Audi and Revolut’s brand identities, emphasizing the accessibility and premium nature of Audi compared to other luxury car brands like Ferrari and Aston Martin.
He explained that Revolut’s choice of Audi as a partner was swift due to the brand’s relatability and the narrative of both companies aiming to disrupt their respective industries – banking for Revolut and F1 for Audi – by starting from scratch and building everything themselves, reflecting a shared ethos of innovation and self-reliance.
