The Formula 1 community gathered at the O2 Arena in London for a historic first-ever launch event where all ten teams took to the stage together, unveiling their 2025 liveries. While some teams made bold changes, others stuck with familiar designs. ESPN’s F1 content team weighed in on this year’s best and worst livery choices.
At the top of the rankings was Red Bull Racing, introducing a new all-white livery that adds a pop of color to the grid. Ferrari took second place with its unique white-on-red design inspired by title sponsor HP. Sauber’s green-and-black scheme paid homage to its title sponsor Stake and will be a sight to behold until next year.
Alpine made a bold statement with big splashes of pink and blue, while Mercedes opted for a safe continuation of last season’s theme. McLaren stuck with their winning formula, and Aston Martin introduced some minor color tweaks. Haas shifted up the design game with white accents, but Red Bull Racing remained largely unchanged.
The bottom spot belonged to Williams, which kept things smart but far from spectacular. The F1 75 Live launch event marked a significant milestone for the sport, showcasing each team’s unique personality on the grid.
