• The inaugural collection between the two brands, featuring apparel, footwear and accessories, brings a fresh perspective to the Paddock with sophisticated cuts across a monochromatic palette

• First-look images feature apparel worn by the team’s race drivers Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto hint at the full range sets to be revealed tomorrow in Berlin

• Set to be showcased in full on 20 January at the official Audi Revolut F1 Team Lauch Event, the adidas x Audi Revolut F1 Team range will then be available to purchase from 19 February

An embodiment of Audi Revolut F1 Team’s ambition to hand-pick like-minded partners, the collection is the first step in two brands working together to bring F1 closer to fans - through the launch of a unique range of apparel to the venue chosen to bring it to life.

Following the multi-year partnership announcement, which saw adidas become the official team partner of Audi Revolut F1 Team – and in preparation of the team’s much-anticipated entry to the grid – the pieces set out to bring a touch of style on and off the track. Incorporating adidas’ latest technologies, the collection comprises of technical pieces tailored specifically for all the team – from drivers and engineers to mechanics – as well as ensuring the team’s dedicated fanbase can showcase the looks, no matter where they are supporting across the globe.

At the core of the collection, subtle red accents act as a unifying design anchor, subtly mirroring the performance and functionality of the Audi Revolut F1 Team car itself. Embracing greyscale hues, inspired by the strength and stealth of titanium feature on the car, the silhouettes tap into a powerful yet refined aesthetic, complete with minimalistic line designs and branding. Comprising of around 160 pieces, key highlights from the drop include:

• Driver wear: Against a simple monochrome base, the collarless jersey features light grey three stripe branding on the shoulders, offset by red line highlights on the sleeves and inner neckline.

• Engineers: The tee exudes elegance through its close-to-the-body cut, contrasted by the oversized puffers and jackets – all complete and tied together with subtle red highlights.

• Mechanics: Rooted in a distinct utility black, charcoal and graphite colourway, the jacket comes with a strategic zipper shape that significantly increases pocket space, whilst adidas’ CLIMACOOL technology supports optimal temperature regulation.

• Footwear: A bespoke ADIZERO EVO SL 2 taps into the grey and red colour palette to complete the coordinated team wear looks. Serving up all-round comfort with a Lightstrike Pro midsole, the silhouette maintains a stripped-back aesthetic whilst ensuring the entire team is equipped with a lightweight offering.

Stefano Battiston, Chief Commercial Officer of Audi Revolut F1 Team: “Bringing a sport as immense as F1 to life in the broader fan community can be daunting but we have found in adidas a partner with whom we can redefine teamwear, lifestyle and technical apparel. We cannot wait to not only wear this at the track but also to see it around the world as we contest the Formula 1 World Championship.”

Nico Hulkenberg, Driver Audi Revolut F1 Team: "The first time representing two leading icons on the track. Wearing the three stripes next to the four rings is a huge moment, and I'm excited to put on the jersey that has been built with precision and driven forward by adidas’ highest level of technical detailing – meaning it delivers style, functionality and hopefully a lot of speed.”

Gabriel Bortoleto, Driver Audi Revolut F1 Team: "Working with adidas is an incredible opportunity for our team. In a sport fuelled by constant advancement and innovation, having the best in the game designing pieces for athletes, to meet their needs to perform at the top, is incredible. Knowing our kit has been crafted with careful thought and tailored to what we require, makes that first moment that I get to wear it, alongside my team, in front of our fans, even more special."

Michael Batz, Motorsport Category GM at adidas: "We are excited to officially mark the start of our journey with Audi Revolut F1 Team, through a full teamwear collection which features adidas’ signature design and best in class technology at the forefront. Expertly crafted for the team to introduce themselves to the grid with style, each piece embodies the power, strength, and design of the car to meet the overall build up-to race-day demands. We can’t wait to see it in the paddock and stands across upcoming race weekends!”
