Mercedes has chosen a green livery for the W15 to honor its partner Petronas.
Mercedes’ Special Livery for Singapore Grand Prix
Petronas is celebrating its 50th anniversary at the Singapore Grand Prix. Since Malaysia no longer hosts an F1 race, Singapore was picked for this celebration. The usual silver parts of the W15 will be green during the weekend at Marina Bay Street Circuit.
“Our partnership with Petronas is our longest-standing and still going strong. We share a common belief and commitment to innovation and performance. That has enabled us to achieve such incredible success in recent years and PETRONAS has been right at the heart of that,” said Toto Wolff.
The drivers are also excited about the new look. Hamilton shared, “Since I joined the team in 2013, Petronas have been there every step of the way. They’ve played such a crucial role in the success that we’ve enjoyed and have helped power me to six Drivers’ World Championships. It’s a privilege therefore to celebrate this milestone, and our journey together, at such an important race.” He added, “The livery looks incredible. I can’t wait to see it on the car in the garage tomorrow and then to get behind the wheel on Friday.”
Russell chimed in: “It’s great to celebrate Petronas’ 50th anniversary in Singapore and to do so with a special livery. The design looks brilliant and is a fantastic tribute to such a milestone achievement. As Title and Technical Partner, PETRONAS are integral to everything we do on track. It is great to recognise the importance of our relationship at the race closest to their home.”
