Red Bull hints at potential change of livery for 2023 car

Red Bull has teased F1 fans on the livery of its 2023 charger - the RB19 - suggesting on social media that a change could be in store.

The team uploaded a tweet that featured a rendering of a basic car draped in white and emblazoned with the Red Bull logo on the engine cover, with the caption "2023 – A blank canvas".

The tease may refer to a new design scheme, one that could be revealed next week in New York, on February 3, or it could suggest a one-off livery that might be used in pre-season testing in Bahrain.

In previous years, Red Bull has often rolled out its car decked out in camo liveries. It's still unclear if next week's presentation in New York will showcase just a colour-scheme or the Milton Keynes-based outfit's new RB19.

In 2021, Red Bull raced at the Turkish Grand Prix with a special Honda tribute livery, a predominantly white scheme that was a nod to the Japanese manufacturer's historic RA 272 F1 car that, in the hands of Richie Ginther, delivered its first Grand Prix win to Honda in Mexico in 1965.

Will Red Bull swap its traditional matte dark blue base coat for a new colour identity? Next week's presentation in the Big Apple should reveal all.
