Racing Bulls lose major F1 sponsor

This company has played a prominent role within Racing Bulls over the last couple of years - but the association has now come to an end.

Polish petroleum company Orlen will no longer sponsor the Racing Bulls team in 2025. Orlen has been in partnership with the Red Bull sister team since 2023, with the logo appearing prominently on the car - most notably on the rear wing. It has been associated with F1 for several years, having been a leading sponsor of ex-driver Robert Kubica.  Orlen supported his comeback to the sport with Williams in 2019 and followed him to Alfa Romeo when he joined as a reserve driver the following year. At the Alfa Romeo team, Orlen acted as co-title sponsor for two seasons before switching its ties to AlphaTauri (now Racing Bulls). However, it has now opted to end its coalition with the team. Orlen has detailed it will continue to use its sponsorship budget but instead use it to invest in the development of educating the next generation of young drivers.
