Audi unveils São Paulo-inspired livery for home race
Audi will use a São Paulo-inspired livery at the São Paulo Grand Prix, where driver Gabriel Bortoleto will race in front of his home fans.
The design, created by title partner Revolut, takes inspiration from the city’s geometric Piso Paulista pavement.
The pattern will also appear on Bortoleto and Nico Hülkenberg’s race suits, the pit crew’s uniforms and the garage branding.
It is Audi’s third special livery this season, after designs for the Monaco and Singapore Grands Prix.
Audi is eighth in the constructors’ standings with 27 points, four behind Haas, as the teams head into the weekend.
Bortoleto has 14 points and Hülkenberg has 13, while Rafael Camara is replacing Esteban Ocon at Haas for the rest of the season.
Camara’s appearance means two Brazilian drivers will race at Interlagos for the first time since 2016.
