2025 Haas VF-25

As MoneyGram Haas F1 Team celebrates the start of its tenth season in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, today the American squad unveiled the design and livery of its VF-25 – the car to be raced by both Oliver Bearman and Esteban Ocon in this year's 24-race championship. The new-look livery was revealed in spectacular fashion at the F1 75 Live event hosted at The O2 Arena in London, as MoneyGram Haas F1 Team joined the rest of the grid in showcasing its colors for the season ahead.

The VF-25 made its physical track debut on Sunday February 16, at a private shakedown test at Silverstone Circuit, England with Ocon behind the wheel. Fellow team newcomer Bearman will get his first taste of the car at the Bahrain International Circuit on Monday 24 February at the team's second permitted shakedown test prior to pre-season testing commencing in Bahrain, February 26-28.

Presenting the VF-25 design and livery digitally across its social channels to coincide with the F1 75 Live event, the renders released highlight the revised livery design with a predominantly fresh white design complete with black and red accents.

'We had a very encouraging year in 2024 so I'm naturally looking forward to seeing further progress made this season with the VF-25,' said Gene Haas, Chairman of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. 'The team really pulled together last year, both on and off-track, and obviously now we have two new drivers in Esteban (Ocon) and Ollie (Bearman) to incorporate into the team and hopefully keep us headed in the right direction. It was exciting to see the developments made last season and I'm trusting that momentum will continue to grow and translate into further performance gains.'

'Our motivation levels have never been higher heading into a brand-new season,' enthused Ayao Komatsu, Team Principal of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. 'To have been in the fight for sixth place in the Constructors' Championship all the way to the final round in 2024 was great to be a part of – the level of development we enjoyed throughout the year was unprecedented in our history. To be going into our tenth season in Formula 1 with the belief that we can compete, and with the team really coming together the way it did, I'm personally very excited to see what we can deliver with the VF-25.'

Komatsu continued; 'All our functions across Kannapolis, Banbury and Maranello have been working hard to ensure we can hit the ground running again in Bahrain. Our design office in Italy, under the guidance of Andrea De Zordo, have worked tirelessly to evolve the successful concept we had with the VF-24, and its upgrades, and build on those strengths and apply into the VF-25 design. We're all eager to get going with Esteban (Ocon) and Ollie (Bearman) and get some milage under our belts prior to racing in Australia next month.'

'As we enter our third year of title partnership with MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, it's as exciting as ever to see the MoneyGram brand proudly displayed across the VF-25,' stated Greg Hall, MoneyGram Chief Marketing Officer. 'This journey alongside the team has been nothing short of extraordinary – together reaching new heights and creating meaningful, impactful connections with our customers and fans. We've created something truly special, and we can't wait for the year ahead.'
