Audi reveal unique livery for Singapore Grand Prix

Audi will race a bespoke livery at this weekend's Singapore Grand Prix, featuring a custom-developed shade that shifts in appearance under Marina Bay's floodlights.

The German manufacturer has created a distinct variant of its Titanium Silver Grey base colour specifically for the street race, adding a blue shimmer inspired by the city's lights and reflections. 

The effect means the R26 will change in appearance as it moves through different parts of the circuit at night.

The pattern itself is applied to the rear wing and sidepods, with Audi stating it brings a visible reference to Singapore's heritage while retaining the straight geometric cuts of the team's established race livery.

The livery arrives at a tough point in Audi's maiden season as a full works outfit. Nico Hülkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto finished 11th and 18th respectively at last time out in Sepang, leaving the team eighth in the constructors' standings on 17 points after 16 rounds, with Haas, Williams and Aston Martin all within reach.

Stefano Battiston, Audi F1's Chief Brand and Commercial Officer, said the Singapore project was about widening the team's reach beyond the circuit itself.

"Bringing Formula 1 to the people means giving fans more ways to feel part of the team, wherever they are," he said.

"Singapore shows how we can do that through one connected idea. Audi's special livery expresses our brand through a design shaped by the city, and fans around the world can discover it for themselves through the online reveal. With the adidas collection and experiences across Singapore, that story continues beyond the race car."

"'The Art of Influence' invites people to engage with the team in ways that are meaningful to them, whether they are here in the city or following from home."
