Would it really be an American grand prix without a sprinkling of special liveries? This year’s Miami Grand Prix continues the trend of deploying one-off paint schemes for the US rounds, and the designs are some of the most eye-opening so far.

Some teams go all out with their new paint schemes, while others add a few extra stickers, use some fancy words in a press release, and benefit from the hype surrounding the event.

In the past, teams have used these unique designs to highlight their historic successes or pay tribute to legendary drivers from the past. This year, they are more dictated by sponsors, with one-off liveries increasingly being inked in commercial deals.

The results will be hard to ignore when the cars hit the track. Here’s a look at all the liveries revealed so far.

Red Bull’s sister team Racing Bulls is one of the squads that have gone all out with its revised colour scheme.

In the team’s own words, the livery “celebrates the vibrant energy of the season and the launch of the new limited time offering Red Bull Summer Edition White Peach on a global stage, seamlessly harmonising with Miami’s iconic bold and retro aesthetic”. In short, it’s pink.

While it might look as if Ferrari was short of engine covers and had to raid a nearby scrapyard for a suitable part in any colour, the team insists that its Miami GP livery is deliberate.

It has handed over the rear of its car and front wings to key sponsor HP in Miami, the result being starks block of blue and white.

Ferrari followed a similar course in 2024 when it opted for some blue lines along the sidepods. This year it’s mainly the rear wing and the engine cover that features the logos of the American multinational company.

The car wrap is up to 14% lighter and up to 17% thinner than last year, according to the team. Some might argue that the reduction in visual appeal is considerably higher.

Sauber is sporting a variation of its green and grey livery during the Miami Grand Prix weekend in what the Swiss squad labelled as an “art car”.

In its press release revealing the paint scheme, Sauber checked all the boxes, with the use of the words “special”, “striking”, “excitement”, “masterpiece”, “electrifying”, “dynamic” and “vibrant”.
