The PokerStars logo will have a place on the new Red Bull car for 2022, the RB18, and will thus be seen on the cars of Verstappen and Sergio Perez. The new sponsor will be seen on the car for the first time during the presentation of the RB18. When the presentation will take place is not yet known.
With the new sponsorship deal, the Austrian racing stable wants to target a wider audience.

With the collaboration, the two parties hope to provide fans with new, interactive experiences.
