Honda are celebrating a special milestone this year. Indeed, 2024 marks the 60th year since the Japanese manufacturer first competed in a Formula One race, the 1964 German Grand Prix. The anniversary was commemorated at the unveiling of Visa Cash App RB's F1 car, and it is possible that the same will happen at the launch of Red Bull Racing's RB20.

The Visa Cash App RB F1 launch heralds the start of Honda's 60th anniversary celebrations in 2024 as we look back to the first F1 race we took part in, the German Grand Prix in 1964," Honda Racing Global wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

There are two more years to go in the successful partnership between Honda, Red Bull and sister team VCARB. From the 2026 F1 season, when the FIA 's new engine regulations come into force, the Japanese engine supplier will enter into a new partnership with Aston Martin's team.
