“As we enter another calendar year, we are raising the stakes and elevating our collective game. We can’t divulge too much, but I can tell that we have some really exciting projects in the pipeline, and we look forward the unveiling of our plans over the next months.
The partnership will also be implemented across all PokerStars offerings, including PokerStars Casino and PokerStars Plus, which all leverage the Red Bull/F1 branding.
The branding of the gambling brand will be featured on the halo and inner cockpit, rear wind plates, pit crew helmets, and drivers’ race suits.
