PokerStars, Red Bull Racing Enter into Partnership

On Friday, Red Bull Racing announced it entered into a partnership with PokerStars ahead of the 2022 F1 season.

The multi-year partnership means PokerStars’ branding will be featured on the Red Bull F1 car and the race suits. Both Red Bull Racing and PokerStars are hopeful the new deal allows them to reach audiences who share similar passions and interests while rewarding and engaging existing fans and players in new and unique ways.

“Red Bull Racing is an ideal fit for PokerStars because it’s not just about what you offer fans and players, but the ethos and vision behind how you offer it,” Flutter Internation’s CEO Dan Taylor said in a media release. “Part of our vision for PokerStars is to create the world’s most epic casino, built on player experiences, giving our community moments they’ll never forget.

“Red Bull Racing’s phenomenal success is built on their bold, innovative, and passionate ethos, which has led to incredible success both on the track and in becoming one of the world’s most popular sports brands. We’re looking forward to working with the Team and sharing further developments as the 2022 season approaches. We wish the Red Bull Racing team all the best for their new campaign.”

Players can look for F1-themed entertainment in addition to experiences, promotions, competitions and content across PokerStars’ full offering of PokerStars Casino, PokerStars and PokerStars Sports products.

Red Bull Racing is coming off an F1 driver’s title, with Max Verstappen winning the first championship of his career.

“Following last year’s blockbuster Formula One season, I am delighted to kick off 2022 by announcing PokerStars as a new partner,” Red Bull Racing Team Principal and CEO Christian Horner said in a media release. “In our sport, we see constant evolution, not only applied to the cars but also to new technologies that are focused on reaching the sport’s global fanbase to provide new and interactive experiences for them to enjoy. We are pleased to welcome PokerStars to the Team as F1 enjoys a period of growth in new and existing territories and look forward to getting the 2022 season underway together.”
