“Why Is He Wearing Pajamas”: Red Bull’s Season Launch Off to the Worst Possible Start as Fans Tear Into Max Verstappen’s Dull Outfit

Red Bull Racing’s 2023 is underway now! As of this moment, the Milton-Keynes-based outfit is in the midst of their livery reveal in New York. However, fans were given a sneak peek into the themes they should expect. Just before the actual launch got underway, the team revealed the official 2023 race suits to be donned by reigning champion Max Verstappen and teammate Sergio Perez.

The Bulls had really hyped their fans when yesterday they teased a massive change! However, it would appear that it was all a false alarm. At least that’s what the fans now fear after looking at the released pictures of the new team kit. Earlier, the fans got a taste of the merchandise they would be donning when it had supposedly been leaked. It must be said that the fans weren’t really accepting of it at all! And now, Red Bull have taken another hit.

As soon as the new race suit was unveiled to the fans, they swarmed to Twitter to share their reactions. You’d have expected this to add to the whole atmosphere before the livery reveal. But the boys and girls at Red Bull may want to avoid this fan interaction now.

F1 fans aren’t easy to please. That being said, the Bulls have taken a very safe approach over the past years. The whole look of the team hasn’t really changed that much over the years. But this year, they talked about doing something bold. Not really leaving their roots, and trying something different still may have actually cost them a bit of rep amongst the fans.

One fan even commented, “Why is he wearing pajamas,” to Max Verstappen’s photo in the new suit. Let’s take a look at just a few of the fan reactions to Red Bull’s latest reveal.
