Lando Norris has reacted to fashion brand AlphaTauri announcing Max Verstappen as their global brand ambassador. The brand was founded and is owned by Red Bull since 2016.
Red Bull is the only team on the F1 grid to have a junior team – (VCARB). The team was renamed Scuderia AlphaTauri between 2020 and 2023 to promote the brand. However, since its name was changed again last year, its direct presence on the grid wasn’t seen.
AlphaTauri recently signed four-time F1 World Champion Max Verstappen as its global ambassador. The Dutchman has driven for Red Bull all his career and is an extremely popular face amongst fans, so it makes sense to have him as the ambassador.
Excited to welcome four-time Formula 1 World Champion @maxverstappen1 as our Official Global Brand Ambassador,” the post read.
Upon the announcement, fellow F1 driver for McLaren Lando Norris shared his reaction on social media. Seemingly surprised by the announcement, he wrote:
“no way????” Commented Lando Norris on the post.
