MoneyGram Haas F1 Team Reveals Striking New VF-25 Design & Livery

As the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team embarks on its milestone tenth season in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, the American squad has officially unveiled the striking design and livery of its VF-25 challenger. Set to be piloted by Oliver Bearman and Esteban Ocon throughout the demanding 24-race campaign, the VF-25 was showcased in dramatic fashion at the F1 75 Live event, held at the prestigious O2 Arena in London. This grand unveiling saw the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team join the rest of the grid in presenting their colours for the highly anticipated season ahead.

The VF-25 made its first physical track appearance on Sunday, February 16, during a private shakedown at Silverstone Circuit in England, with Ocon taking the wheel. Meanwhile, Bearman, the team’s fresh recruit, will experience his maiden run in the car at the Bahrain International Circuit on Monday, February 24, during the team’s second permitted shakedown, ahead of the official pre-season testing scheduled for February 26-28 in Bahrain.

The team amplified its global reveal by presenting the VF-25’s design and livery digitally across its social media platforms, aligning with the excitement of the F1 75 Live event. The newly released renders highlight a refreshed and modern livery featuring a dominant white base accented with bold black and red elements, creating a dynamic and aggressive aesthetic.

MoneyGram, a leading financial technology company dedicated to facilitating seamless global payments and financial solutions, proudly enters its third season as the team’s title partner. Its branding remains prominently displayed on key areas of the VF-25, including the engine cover, front wing, and rear wing. Haas Automation, the global CNC machine tool giant founded by team owner Gene Haas, also continues its strong presence on the car’s sidepods and rear wing. Additionally, esteemed team partners such as Toyota GAZOO Racing, Play’n GO, Mphasis, Orion180, CommScope, UChicago Medicine, and Pirelli are well-represented with strategic logo placements.

Reflecting on the team’s progress, Gene Haas, Chairman of the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, shared his optimism: “We had a very encouraging year in 2024, and I’m naturally looking forward to seeing further progress made this season with the VF-25. The team really came together last year, both on and off the track. Now, with Esteban (Ocon) and Ollie (Bearman) joining our ranks, we have a fresh dynamic that will hopefully push us forward. The advancements made last season were inspiring, and I trust that momentum will continue to drive us toward even greater performance gains.”

Team Principal Ayao Komatsu echoed Haas’ sentiments, emphasizing the squad’s renewed determination: “Our motivation levels have never been higher heading into this brand-new season. To have been in contention for sixth place in the Constructors’ Championship until the final round in 2024 was a testament to the incredible development we experienced throughout the year. The strides we made were unprecedented in our team’s history. Now, as we step into our tenth season in Formula 1, we are driven by the belief that we can compete at an even higher level. The cohesion and dedication within our team make me incredibly excited to see what we can achieve with the VF-25.”

Komatsu further detailed the effort behind the VF-25’s development: “Our teams across Kannapolis, Banbury, and Maranello have been working tirelessly to ensure we are fully prepared to hit the ground running in Bahrain. Under the leadership of Andrea De Zordo, our design office in Italy has meticulously refined and evolved the successful VF-24 concept, implementing key upgrades and optimizations to enhance our competitiveness. We are eager to get the car on track with Esteban and Ollie, accumulating valuable mileage before our season-opening race in Australia next month.”

Greg Hall, Chief Marketing Officer of MoneyGram, highlighted the significance of the ongoing partnership: “As we enter our third year as the title partner of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, the excitement remains as strong as ever. Seeing the MoneyGram brand proudly displayed on the VF-25 is a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come together. This journey has been extraordinary, allowing us to reach new heights and forge meaningful, impactful connections with our customers and fans. We’ve built something truly special, and we can’t wait to see what this season has in store.”
