Red Bull will pay tribute to its outgoing engine supplier Honda with a special Formula 1 livery at this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix.
It's the second time Red Bull has run a special white livery for Honda, having taken a double podium at the 2021 Turkish GP in white.
Honda is leaving at the end of the 2025 season to become Aston Martin's new engine partner, while Red Bull is building its own F1 engine for the first time in collaboration with Ford.
Red Bull and Honda have won two constructors' championships and four drivers' championships since partnering in 2019.
This weekend's race also marks home hero Yuki Tsunoda's Red Bull Racing debut after the team decided to swap him and Liam Lawson, a decision believed to be boosted by Honda backing.
The white livery pays tribute to Honda's first race-winning F1 car, the white RA272, which won the 1965 Mexican GP 60 years ago with American Richie Ginther at the wheel.
"Our relationship with Honda deserves celebration, it has been one of continued success and brought the team one of the most triumphant and dominant periods in our history," Red Bull team boss and CEO Christian Horner said.
"This livery is a tribute to Honda's success in the sport and the final year of, what has been a thoroughly enjoyable partnership."
Honda Racing Corporation president Koji Watanabe said "it is quite moving to see the RA272 tribute livery on the latest Red Bull Racing machine, in the final year of Honda and Red Bull’s partnership.
"Our successful path will continue to shine in the history of F1.”
Verstappen, Tsunoda, Lawson and his new Racing Bulls team-mate Isack Hadjar will all take part in show runs through the streets of Tokyo on Wednesday.
They'll drive the RA272, Verstappen's 2021 title-winning RB16B and Sebastian Vettel's 2011 title-winning RB7.
Cherry blossom for Haas
Red Bull isn't the only F1 team running a special F1 livery this weekend as Haas has added cherry blossom to its VF-25 design.
