Red Bull Racing drivers, Max Verstappen and Liam Lawson, have launched the team’s season after engaging with fans and local street artist JESWRI at the Red Bull Fan Zone ahead of the Australian Grand Prix race weekend.

The Oracle Red Bull Racing Team is officially in Naarm, Melbourne, where four-time world champion, Max Verstappen, and the team’s emerging talent, Liam Lawson, were seen at the Red Bull Fan Zone, posing alongside the iconic Formula 1 Oracle Red Bull Racing car against the backdrop of Melbourne’s impressive cityscape.

Commenting on the Red Bull fans, Lawson, said: “Going into my first weekend as an Oracle Red Bull Racing Driver and seeing everyone here today at the Red Bull Fan Zone is pretty cool.”

During their visit, Max and Liam provided fans with a closer look at the forthcoming race weekend, participating in a Q&A session with former driver and now commentator, David Coulthard.

Adding to the event’s vibrancy, notable Gadigal street artist JESWRI (Jesse Wright) unveiled a piece of artwork dedicated to the team, infusing the spirit of Melbourne’s laneways into the Fan Zone.

As JESWRI completed his artwork, both Max and Liam contributed their signatures, transforming it into a unique piece of memorabilia.
