VCARB reveal new team name for 2025!
- Ludo van Denderen
It was quite a mouthful: Visa Cash App RB, or VCARB. But all year, there were also people calling the Italian team of Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson Racing Bulls. To end all ambiguity, VCARB - part of the Red Bull family - have a new name for the team in 2025: Visa Cash App Racing Bulls. The Faenza-based team revealed this to GPblog and others.
Peter Bayer, the CEO of team, explained the reason for the name change. "We recently just confirmed we've been struggling to a certain extent with making it clear to people what the team name is and we've seen so many versions."
'A bit rushed'
The name change from AlphaTauri to Visa Cash App RB happened last January. "It all happened within weeks and we've been probably rushing a couple of the things, what we see ultimately is that people are referring to us as Visa Cash App Racing Bulls. Racing Bulls is something which anyways is our company name and certainly, I've seen it in the German, Austrian, Italian, French media being used mostly actually."
"People [were] struggling with the RB thing alone, some of them mixing it up with Red Bull, others didn't actually really know what it stands for and so that's why we decided to clarify that and basically what you will see in the future is Visa Cash App Racing Bulls and VCARB as an abbreviation,” Bayer said.
