Haas have become the first team to take the covers off its new livery for the upcoming 2023 season.
Kicking off the pre-season hype, the team revealed pictures online of its new livery, which features an updated white, red and black theme.
The new colour scheme comes following changes at the team, with MoneyGram coming on board as a title sponsor whilst Nico Hulkenberg replaces Mick Schumacher at the team.
“The livery reveal proudly reflects the new title partnership of MoneyGram International Inc,” a statement said.
Haas made progress with their car following the regulations overhaul in 2022, but the team will be looking to continue moving forward this season.
Helping the cause is their partnership with MoneyGram, which should help Haas operate at F1’s budget cap for the first time in 2023.
“I like the livery, it’s undoubtedly a more elevated and modernised look which is fitting as we move into a new era alongside MoneyGram as our title partner,” team principal Guenther Steiner said.
“It’s an exciting time of year for Formula 1 and it’s great that we’re first out the gate to showcase our livery but our attention is firmly on getting the VF-23 on-track and preparing for the season ahead.
“We really have something to build on following last year’s performances. The whole organisation has been working hard to reach this point and obviously in Kevin (Magnussen) and Nico (Hülkenberg) we have two proven points-scoring talents locked in behind the wheel. I can’t wait to get started.”
